1. The researchers chose to standardise the terms into their Beaufort scale equivalents. 2. Taiwan uses the Beaufort scale with the extension to 17 noted above. 3. The winds reached force 12 on the Beaufort scale and were well over. 4. The Beaufort scale was extended in 1946, when forces 13 to 17 were added. 5. Winds at Force 13 on the Beaufort scale were recorded in the Matsu Islands. 6. The reason is that the Beaufort scale is not an exact nor an objective scale. 7. 29-09-2012 She lost both masts in strong breeze, 6 at the Beaufort scale , north of Terschelling. 8. Windspeed is given in the Beaufort scale or in miles per hour, never kilometres per hour. 9. The Beaufort scale is still generally used to determine wind speed from manual observers out at sea. 10. A gale-force wind is defined as being at least, which is 8 on the modern Beaufort scale .
