بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
The wind is one of Allah's Creation and which no human can see but they can feel it and see its effect. The wind may become a mercy and may become a torment by the command of its Creator and manager [Glory be to Him]. It is one of the greatest signs indicating the greatness and the power of Allah and the necessity of directing the worship solely for Him alone without associating any partner with Him.
وَٱخْتِلَٰفِ ٱلَّيْلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِ وَمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مِن رِّزْقٍ فَأَحْيَا بِهِ ٱلْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا وَتَصْرِيفِ ٱلرِّيَٰحِ ءَايَٰتٌ لِّقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ ﴿٥﴾
And [in] the alternation of night and day and [in] what Allah sends down from the sky of provision and gives life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and [in His] directing of the winds are signs for a people who reason. [Quran, Al Jathiyah 45:5]
The wind is one of the wonders which people need but they fear it, and if they had done whatever they can to move it, they would have not moved it while it is still, and if it moves, they shall not be able to stop it or at least lessen its effect or change its course.
The only thing they can do is to escape from or take shelter to the extent that villages and cities are abandoned for fear of its effect then they wait helplessly for its coming and leaving. When the storm becomes still, they bury their dead, cure their wounds, shelter their displaced, count their losses, fix whatever it destroyed, and cry for their disaster.
May Allah make the wind a source of mercy for us. Aameen.
