Main question in the minds of people who are reading this blog would be why am I writing something on Beaufort Force 7. Well the answer is these where the winds that hit Trivandrum couple of days back destroying 1/3rd of the 11kV substations.
Beaufort scale is a wind speed measure based on sea conditions.The scale was devised in order to standardize the weather observations made by Navy officers.
The Beaufort force 7 wind which hit Trivandrum had a speed of 55km/hr.There was a sudden rise in the wave height. These high speed winds caused large scale destruction to the electricity services.Thankfully there weren't any human casualities :)
