Effects of an alien weather generator?

+0
−0

An alien race wants to test out its new technology that modifies the atmosphere of Earth and other terrestrial planets, they decide to center it over Central Park, NYC. One of the first things they want to test is how the wind affects the environment. The weather modifier appears to be a large tower that extends into outer space. Now let's say 40 miles from the center of the alien device, winds are sustained at 140 mph with higher gusts, From 40 to 80 miles they are sustained at 100 mph and from 80 to 130 miles they are sustained at 70 mph, from 130 miles to 180 miles the wind rapidly tapers off but is sustained around 20 to 70 mph. What would be the long term effects if these winds remained this way for a full year?
