What the wind face 🌬️ emoji means
🌬️ is the wind face: a cloud with a face blowing a gust of air, the old map-corner wind god. It is the weather wind emoji — windy days, storms coming in, kite weather, a cold northerly — and it also means blowing: blowing out candles, blowing away troubles, “blown away” by something. Added in Emoji 1.0 (2015) with a variation selector. For a puff of speed or smoke use 💨 dashing away; for a leaf in the breeze 🍃 leaf; storms are 🌪️ tornado and 🌀.
