Parents wind gust A WindGust is a sudden increase in the wind speed. It usually lasts for less than 20 seconds, briefer than a squall, which lasts minutes. A gust is followed by a lull (or slackening) in the wind speed. The average value of wind speed is generally measured over a period of 2 minutes before the meteorological observation according to the World Meteorological Organization. It is generally reported in METAR when the peak wind speed reaches at least 16 knots (30 km/h; 18 mph) and the variation in wind speed between the peaks and average wind is at least 9 to 10 knots (17 to 19 km/h; 10 to 12 mph).[Wikipedia]
