    It's not an official name so they can call it what they want. I'm sure it will do their exposure no harm at all too. :)

    Su can you help me with a conversion? what would winds of 48 meters per second be in knots?? (There was a severe wind storm in Iceland when I was there and the guide was talking about wind speeds in terms of meters per second)... I got a reading of 22.8 m/s on my anemometer but didn't know how to translate that into knots...
