I mean buildings and infrastructure.

We love our storms here, but that is because our buildings are designed to handle them. I know that you can build sheet metal buildings in such a way that is hardened against wind up to certain speeds. And certain additional bracing increase it a certain amount.

Mine is designed to withstand 120 mph, which is overkill for rural KY.

Good for you.

Just curious-—do you get heavy snow and/or ice in your area?
