The KB0EO antenna stack and tower survived a brutal 75 mph windstorm in November 2010. Antennas include OptiBeam OB2-40, Hygain TH11DX, M2 6 meter, and Hygain 14 element 2 meter. Antennas are turned parallel to the wind to help reduce the wind loading.
This storm produced gusts up to 80 mph and had a barometric pressure equivalent to a category 3 hurricane.
Fortunately, everything survived.
Tis hard. if your antennas are up when one hits almost impossible to get them down without damage.
