Strong storms are the most common natural hazards in Mongolia and their frequencies, intensities, scope, damage, and negative consequences are likely to increase further due to the effects of climate change. The paper aims to analyze in detail the features of the strong wind and storm event that occurred on 13-15 March 2021 and to identify issues that are critical to the prevention and reduction of potential damage caused by further severe events. The Pearson's correlation analysis is used for determining features of the disastrous characteristics and damage effects of the strong wind and storm event, resulting from the following findings. Firstly, we have observed, that the loss of livestock is much higher with longer-duration strong winds and storms. Secondly, high wind speeds and longer-duration events are associated with noticeably negative impacts on herders and their livestock. Lastly, property damage demonstrates much escalation with instantaneous high wind speeds. It presents practical results in the smallest damage effects through receiving weather forecasts carefully for herders, forecasting wind speeds, and gaining awareness regarding the importance of getting ready for hazards.
