forgive me if I'm missing it's presence, but it doesnt seem like the game models the Wind very much. This is a pretty impactful element of the weather and could turn even some normally somewhat warm days quite chilly, and winter days even worse!

I think wind should effect temperature, and also naturally interfere with projectiles.

though naturally, I am sure that the list of desired future content is an ever reaching expanse and I can see why this is not of tremendous priority. Perhaps this could be bundled into the future thunderstorms etc. update? (can we get blizzards too?) Intense weather phenomena would be a rather welcome disruption to the game, and while wind can be dangerous for many reasons a full on gale can be downright incredibly dangerous.

Dev plans do list:

Thunder and lightning

Storms; trees felling down, crops getting hurt etc.

No specific mention of wind, but trees falling down would seem to include wind effects.
