Word of the morning is ‘williwaw’ (19th century): a sudden violent squall or a toppling gust of wind.
Goes well with ‘thunderplump’: a sudden downpour that soaks you to the skin in seconds.

Two words for certain types of people, should you need them:
microlipet: one who gets all worked up over nothing.
struthonian: the person who buries their head in the sand and says ‘Problem? What problem?’.
