• 1. A sudden, brief increase in the speed of the wind. It is of a more transient character than a squall and is followed by a lull or slackening in the wind speed. Generally, winds are least gusty over large water surfaces and most gusty over rough land and near high buildings. ...
• Sudden brief increase of the wind speed over its mean value.
• a sudden and brief increase in wind speed.
• A fluctuation of the mean wind speed with variations of 10 KT or more between peaks and lulls.
• A sudden significant increase in, or rapid variation of wind speed. Usually a gust lasts less than twenty seconds. Hail Frozen rain droplets created by the updrafts of convective thunderstorms. Hail is generally associated with severe thunderstorms.
• A sudden significant increase in or rapid fluctuations of wind speed. Peak wind speed must reach at least 16 knots (18 miles per hour); the duration is usually less than twenty seconds. Hurricane gusts have speeds 10mph or greater faster than a hurricane€™s sustained wind speed.
