Brace Your Home for Northern Nevada’s Mighty Winds with Zion Builders!

Living in northern Nevada means experiencing winds that are anything but ordinary. From the infamous gusts of Washoe Valley to strong gales that can topple semi-trucks, the impact of high wind speeds is a force to be reckoned with. At Zion Builders, we understand the importance of wind-resistant designs, because your safety and peace of mind come first.

The Power of Wind: What You Need to KnowWind damage is no stranger to our area. Downed power lines, roof damage, fallen fences, and uprooted trees are common sights after strong winds sweep through. Wind also fuels wildfires, spreading destruction at an alarming pace. It’s no wonder the National Weather Service (NWS) emphasizes the significant effects of wind loads – damage that increases as wind speeds climb.

According to Jessica Kielhorn, a meteorologist with NWS, gusts in northern Nevada often exceed 50 mph—classified as strong gale force winds. Imagine winds powerful enough to cause structural damage and strip roofing tiles. Washoe Valley, known for gusts reaching 80 mph or higher, even faces hurricane-force winds! No surprise this stretch of I-580 frequently carries high wind warnings.
