The differences in implications of these events on the built environment, in terms of the levels of engineering input and the context of formal and informal development, are discussed.enStatistics on wind damageStrong wind eventsSouthern AfricaWind climateWind damageSevere wind phenomena in Southern Africa and the related damageArticleGoliger, A.
