My personal choice is to lower the spark until the high wind warnings stop, and if they don't stop I land the craft and stop flying. The reason for this is that I try very hard to always be in control of the craft, and to maximize my opportunity to return the craft home in the event of unexpected/unwanted events.
There is always the chance that the craft could lose GPS signal, in which case it goes to ATTI mode. In such an event it is the pilot vs. nature, as the breezes or winds will have significant impact on the craft. These higher winds will challenge one's piloting skills, and may even exceed them. If one doesn't have a lot of practice flying in atti mode (spark doesn't let you control this), and if one hasn't kept the craft in LOS, the flight will not end well.
