Gale force here for sure.  I crapped myself ;p  This was NOT intentional.  The storm kinda just came...VERY FAST.  But the Air 2 is a BEAST!  Love this drone!

The reason you suddenly got the altitude zone warning is that the barometric pressure dropped from the storm.

I could not say what the aircraft fought against to land, but I think it was VERY close to being beyond it's ability.   It was VERY scary!

Looks like a typical day in the winter here in western NY. Minus the  palm trees, Just add 3 feet of snow and no visibility!!. Seriously good job of bringing it back safe that was fun to watch!
