The force of wind acting on an object is defined by three variables:

The area of the object that the wind is striking.

The density of the air.

The velocity of the wind.

So technically you could have a weak force applied by a fast moving wind if the density of the air was very low (maybe at a high altitude or a planet other than earth).
