What speed range defines a strong wind warning?

10 to 19 knots
20 to 33 knots
34 to 47 knots
48 to 63 knots

The correct answer is: 20 to 33 knots

A strong wind warning is issued when winds are expected to reach between 20 to 33 knots. It is important to note that while 10 to 19 knots may be considered windy conditions, it does not meet the criteria of a strong wind warning. Likewise, 34 to 47 knots falls under a gale warning, while 48 to 63 knots is classified as a storm warning. Therefore, the most appropriate speed range for a strong wind warning is 20 to 33 knots.
