These are the windiest places on the planet​

Extreme weather patterns are nothing new in this age of climate change and global warming. But there are some places on Earth that are notorious for the sheer forces of nature that batter and beleaguer particular destinations. These include winds of such frightening ferocity that they’ve been given names and ended up in the record books. But what are the windiest places on the planet?
