Local winds may be even more erratic in showery weather. Dramatic down-drafts of
cold air may occur causing local squalls.

over several hours
The above main wind and gust plot shows that gusts can be more erratic in nature and
several times stronger than the main wind. Their effects will be far more audible than
a steady wind.
Anti-phasing eq
It may be advisable to roll off the system's high frequency response during gusts and
squalls as a decreasing hf response sounds more natural than the incoherent swishing
noise associated with phasing. A single pole (6dB per octave) high cut filter with a
variable knee control down to 8KHz works well.
