Wind speed is the speed that wind moves at.

It relates to hurricanes in that a tropical storm does not become a hurricane until sustained winds reach 74 miles per hour or faster.

Wind speed is the speed at which air moves from one place to another. Wind speed is a critical factor in determining the intensity of a hurricane, as higher wind speeds are associated with more powerful and destructive storms. Hurricane categories are based on the maximum sustained wind speed of the storm.
