<So if the flying speed of the bees is between 13 - 25mph, what happens when you have a really strong wind above 25mph? Do you loose a higher percent of foragers or have the bees learned how to forage without being blown away?>

From my observation, the bees seem to know enough not to leave the hive when the winds are strong. I suspect that if the wind comes out when they are away from home the just land and wait for favorable conditions.
