Historically, mid-September is the peak of hurricane season here in North America. The most powerful storms generate sustained winds of more than 150 miles per hour, with stronger gusts — strong enough to flatten anything in their path. Yet that’s like a soft spring breeze compared to the winds of Neptune, the Sun’s most remote major planet. Winds there can reach almost 1300 miles per hour.
