Wind speed is expressed in numerous units, including miles per hour, knots, meters per second, and feet per second. It can even be expressed as a scaled value, called the Beaufort Wind Scale, which rates the severity of the wind based on its speed range. Online conversion tools offer a convenient way to convert to and from just about any unit you want. Simply enter the value for any unit and all conversions are carried out for you.
