Abstract

The entire country is at an increased risk of hazardous meteorological events as a result of climate change. This includes a rise in the frequency of strong winds, which represents a substantial challenge to the country's economy. The objective of our research is to identify the locations in Georgia that have seen high wind speeds during the past four years. The research examines the spatial distribution of high-velocity winds (defined as a wind speed equal to or greater than 15 m/s) in specific regions of Georgia throughout the time frame from 2019 to 2022. Analysed and processed wind data from 12 meteorological stations in Georgia. By analysing the data from meteorological stations, we created tables and graphs that display the monthly and station-specific numbers for the frequency of strong winds. The study period has revealed the focal points where high wind development occurs. An analysis is conducted on instances of powerful wind as a hazardous meteorological phenomenon in the region of Georgia. The rise in the frequency of strong winds has garnered significant attention, particularly within the framework of climate change.
