How much wind can a roof withstand before it's damaged?

Standard asphalt shingles are typically rated to withstand winds of 60 to 70 mph, while architectural and high-wind-rated shingles can hold up to 110 to 130 mph when properly installed. Georgia regularly sees severe thunderstorm winds and, occasionally, the remnants of tropical systems that can exceed these thresholds. Even a well-installed roof can sustain damage in a strong enough storm, and an aging roof or one with improper installation is at even greater risk.
