Big Wind Day When : April 12th Big Wind Day commemorates the highest wind speed ever recorded on the planet. Can you guess where? No, it wasnt in the middle of a hurricane or a tornado. On April 12, 1934, the staff of the Mount Washington Observatory recorded the highest surface wind ever measured, anywhere on earth. This big wind was officially recorded at 231 miles per hour. Imagine the difficulties of even making a recording under those conditions back then!
