How are wind gusts created?

165 views

Why do some winds blow constantly, and some blow almost exclusively in gusts? What creates gusts? I know how wind is “made”, but how do gusts happen? If it’s the same thing, just on a smaller scale, wouldn’t it be like that all the time, and not depend on the direction of the wind?

The easiest answer is that wind is like sound. Sound comes in waves due to the chaotic nature of the universe and so do winds.
