   It was very stormy, but I don't believe that such strong gusts have occurred.   
   I do know that this near crash took place on RW 23, with 70 degrees crosswind.   
   That was a misstake, the tower should not have indicated this RW.   
   Shortly after the A320 landed on RW 33. A runway without ILS.
