      I was wondering... I've been checking the wind speed over the last few days on Windy, and it's showing windspeed which isn't even near cat 1 hurricane speed. Why the discrepancy? Even right now it isn't showing anything much over 40 knots.. Thanks.

        Hi, you must understand the difference between the wind forecast (AVERAGE values) and the maximum wind speeds of the hurricanes. I've made a summary here: https://community.windy.com/topic/37123/understand-hurricane-tracking-forecast-and-measurements
