Yeah that’s windy. Here’s how the National Weather Service describes wind that strong:
From https://www.weather.gov/lix/htiwind
Hurricane winds - 130 to 160 mph gusts 170+ mph: Devastating damage is expected. Most of the area will be uninhabitable for weeks, perhaps longer.
* At least one half of well constructed homes will have roof and wall failure. All gabled roofs will fail, leaving those homes severely damaged or destroyed.
* The majority of industrial buildings will become non functional.
* Concrete block low rise apartments will sustain major damage, including some wall and roof failure.
* High rise office and apartment buildings will sway dangerously, a few to the point of total collapse. All windows will blow out. Airborne debris will be widespread and may include heavy items such as household appliances and even light vehicles.
* The blown debris will create additional destruction. People, pets and livestock exposed to the winds will face certain death if struck.
* Power outages will last for weeks as most power poles will be down and transformers destroyed.
* Water shortages will make human suffering incredible by modern standards.
* The vast majority of native trees will be snapped or uprooted.
* Few crops will remain. Livestock left exposed to the winds will be killed.
