The Windy City is my Pretty...

I can't remember anymore, which song this quote is from but I like it...
Although the song is about Chicago ( I reckon ) I just discovered that Wellington might be the windiest city in the world!
"Wellington is one of the windiest cities in the world (possibly the windiest) and is windier than other southern windy cities including Cape Town, Perth, and Geraldton."

I just took a screenshot from the metservice website, which states the gusts are at about 120km/h at the moment. Some minutes ago it was 137! And it doesn't even feel particularly more windy than on other [windy] days, I just never encoutered the stats before.
I reckon 137 kmh gusts would definetely result in a weather warning in Germany, but don't seem to bother anyone here. ( As I told you heaps, here's the proof! )
