Even assuming that there’s always a parent in the nest, I can’t understand how it’s possible to such fragile things like a nest and eggs survive during a storm. And trees branches, where nests are, are supposed to dance in the wind in a much more explosive way than the whole tree.
And the rainwater? Can eggs be viable after being wet? Water is very good in removing heat, so I think it’s not a good combination.

Nests do fall out of trees, or just the eggs. Some birds build better nests and some build awful nests.
As far as the eggs getting wet, most of the time, during a storm, the mother or father is sitting on the nest, which means they get rest, not the eggs.
