Wind Gusts
 
Are there any guidelines for playing in high winds?

I am talking gusts to 25-35 mph

Call time when the catcher can't see. :D

Didn't mean to "blow" off the question, but I've never seen or heard any other than stopping play when conditions are unsafe.

And, I'm an umpire, I can always see. :p

There have gbeen times when wind was blowing
and especially when blowing dust so that I had trouble
seeing--that I have called "time" and waited for it to
abate. Otherwise, there is no rule that I'm aware of--
unless there might be local "rules".
