Wind

You may be surprised to hear the noise of the wind in your hearing aids when outside, for example when out walking, or on the golf course. This is natural, because the wind comes into contact with the microphone on the hearing aid. Different hearing aids react in different ways, this is largely dependent on microphone placement, size of the aid (smaller aids are protected more from the physical presence of the ear itself). Today's hearing aids are designed to minimize wind noise as much as possible.
