mesh screen vs wind speed?

When I was younger, my Father and I used to install Home Satellite Dishes like this one made with mesh, before DirectTV and such came out.



I remember discussing with him about wind being able to pass through the dish. He told me that at a certain wind speed the mesh no longer let the wind through and the dish would act like a solid dish.

I have tried several Google searches trying to find that wind speed number and I can't seem to find it.

Do any of you know what wind speed would make a mesh screen act as solid?

I'm curious to know as the front bumper I'm getting installed has mesh in it and I was thinking about installing mesh side air intakes.
