        Usually a gale warning is issued when the Wind reaches force 8 (Bf) on Beaufort scale which corresponds to 34kt (62km/h) up to 40kt (74km/h). The Beaufort scale is based on mean wind over 10min which corresponds to the « Wind » layer on Windy (That is not Gusts)
        Apparently there no risk of strong winds at Novorossiysk in the next days. They should not exceed 12kt.

        But you have to remember that you must rely on official marine warnings and advisories especially if you plan to sail offshore.
