      I cannot understand why sometimes I have seen wind guats predicted to be less than the sustained wind. Is the gust measurement number to be added to the sustained wind to calculate the wind gust total speed?

        No, the gusts forecast values are not to be added to the averaged wind. Where do you see that Gusts are lower than Wind? Please could you show a screenshot?
