Hi Michael,
As you are aware, the wind itself makes no noise as such. What we hear is
the wind interacting with the environment: trees, buildings, rock formation=
,
unprotected microphones, etc.
Identify the physical features with which the wind is interacting and use
those as the source of recordable sound. It can be quite difficult to get a
recording that matches what or ears hear. Often, on playback, it can sound
like white noise. Sometimes this sound is very low level, such as you can
get with the wind whistling through rocks or buildings.
Also make sure that the microphone(s) are protected from the direct effects
of the wind otherwise all you will get is a very unpleasant rumble.

Any recommendations on recording wind?
I am near some deserts in southern california for a few months and I
would like to try and do this soon.
Thanks,
