Hi, we had a fairly intense Nor'Easter last Saturday here in New England. We lost power, so I decided to get some video of the storm.
Wind speeds were fairly steady at around 22 MPH checking after the fact, measuring at ground level was only around 10 MPH, so I decided to go for it. I initially flew the drone at low altitude to see how well it would fly, and gradually went higher carefully checking it's handling performance, but it was rock steady at all times, no issues. So, I flew into the front yard at about 100 feet up and did a spin around the neighborhood to see the intensity of the storm from different relative directions.
I shot it in 4K, most of the flight is here:

Here's just the sheets of snow, w/o takeoff/landing, 1080P (trimmed and lower resolution, a lot smaller for download):
