As a Hurricane hits the Rust Belt, Raiders face new challenges to their looting and shooting. The wind will batter you, debris will light up your shield while degrading its protection, and visibility will scatter your sense of direction - the high roaring winds have unearthed First Wave Caches along the surface giving better loot than normal Raider Caches. Raiders have reported finding tier four weapons and rare blueprints. The high winds might make it hard to hear the caches, but they are there. They are usually around a mass of debris and make a digital ticking sound. The Hurricanes have for some reason drawn more ARC to the locations so watch your backs, even though you can't see them, they can definitely see you.

Going against the strong winds will drain your stamina faster and will make you slightly slower while running, jumping also pushes you with the wind. Going with the wind will make you faster.
