I was wondering the same thing this morning while watching a live update. I recalled past storm reporting where the reporter's voice was so distorted by the gales, you could only hear one word out of six.

I, too, am impressed!

The frequencies of sound produced by high winds and waves are known; it's a simple matter (at least, nowadays it is) to analyze those sounds, send them through a circuit which inverts them in phase, and then combines the original and inverted signals into a single waveform. If it's done right — original and inverted are equal in amplitude — they'll cancel each other out.

So, you're saying that it's the real time audio processing done by the broadcast that's the hero, not the windscreen?

That's actually more impressive.

I'm not absolutely certain that's what they're using in this particular instance, but the technology has been around for a few years now and doesn't cost a bundle - you can buy it in headphones now in the $100-200 range.
