Okie city I believe holds that record. I read a few yrs. back that the avg. daily wind speed is 14.8 or some such.
calm before the storm out here right now.

My wife asked the same thing last weekend. Beautiful weather, no clouds and sunny. Let’s go fishing, she walks outside and says never mind the wind will blow us off the water. It’s that way every time she’s off of work. The Champion Mean 16 doesn’t take the 15+ winds very well. It cuts through the choppy water but my problem is trying to keep it somewhat in place while fishing.
Amarillo and Lubbock are the windiest in the US. Chi-town doesn’t even make the top 10. Corpus, Wichita Falls, and Abilene are also in the top 10. 5 of the top 10 windiest cities in the US are in Texas. I’ve always wondered how those west Texas people fished. Texoma gets pretty rough too.

If you want no wind the least windiest city is LA, California. To stay in the south Georgia has 3 of the least windiest cities and Tennessee has two of the least windiest cities. That’s all according to google and it says average daily wind in Okie city is 11.3 hop. They do have their record high of 151 mph in 2011 only to be topped by Corpus with a 161 mph wind in 1970.

Amarillo probably has most places beat. Midland, Odessa, Lubbock……we are all pretty windy places from time to time. Blowing pretty good here right now actually.
