I've applied it successfully in winds up to 7-8 mph. Summer and fall in Nebraska are a lot less windy than spring. Trees around the pond helps block wind too. Aren't you just applying a small area from shore? If so winds should impact your application far less than those in boats doing a full pond treatment.
