High winds can create obnoxious side effects for flag flyers. For instance, a cheap flag or a flag made of inappropriate material may not hold up to heavy winds, making the flag to prematurely come apart at the seams or fray on the ends. More importantly, however, a flagpole's wind speed rating is calculated according to the size of the flag that the pole is engineered to fly. This is because wind can also wreak enormous devastation on flagpoles. Flag size and wind force are used to calculate the best wind-load on a flagpole. Furthermore, an over-sized flag raises the amount strain on all of the ancillary parts (snap hooks, weights, ropes, etc...), and can result in failures that lead to flag or flagpole destruction.
