I forget the numbers for the wind speed ratings. But they are high. You will not have a problem with the Slimline ripping off the roof. I have left the dish up in some strong winds and there has not been any loss of signal. With all dishes you may get some rain fade on occasion. Being that the Slimline is peeked each time you set it up it is probably more accurately pointed at the satellites than a lot of home dishes.
The base of the Slimline is substantial. On the second unit I installed the Slimline on I used the Traveler Mounting Plate. This plate I feel is worth the money spent. The attachment to the roof is more spread out and has less effect on the roof plywood.
