This why I find it so hard to believe anything I see from the US news media. From CNN:

http://www.cnn.com/2014/12/05/world/asia...?hpt=hp_t2

"It's packing sustained winds of 195 kilometers an hour (313 mph) near the storm's center, with gusts of up to 230 kph (370 mph)."

Tom. It looks like they updated that news feed, as a kilometer is a little over .6 mile, making the 195 KMH closer to 121 MPH... still a wind I would not like to meet, but 313MPH.... Nothing would not survive!

The applied the formula incorrectly. 121MPH is roughly 195KPH.
