Wind advisory, high wind watch or high wind warning near Tokyo: what each means
The three National Weather Service wind products, from least to most severe. The live status above shows which, if any, is in effect within 300 km of Tokyo.
Wind Advisory
Strong winds that fall short of warning criteria: generally sustained winds of 30 to 39 mph for an hour or more, or gusts of roughly 45 to 57 mph. Secure loose objects and expect difficult driving for high-profile vehicles.
High Wind Watch
Warning-level winds are possible, usually within the next 12 to 48 hours, but timing or strength is still uncertain. Finish preparations now.
High Wind Warning
Sustained winds of 40 mph or more for an hour or longer, or gusts of 58 mph or more for any duration, are expected or occurring. Downed trees and power lines and damage to roofs are likely; stay away from windows and avoid travel.
Thresholds are the NWS national guidelines; each forecast office sets local criteria, so mountain and coastal offices may use higher numbers. A Severe Thunderstorm Warning covers storm gusts of 58 mph or more and is a separate product.
