Sure. The sustained wind of a hurricane could be thought of as a 0 Hz 156 dB sound wave. A more ordinary passing breeze, the sort that we consciously recognize as a breeze rather than as a sound, lasts for around 1-10 seconds. So we could just as well describe an ordinary breeze as noise in the .1-1 Hz part of the spectrum somewhere above 100 dB of loudness (guessing).
Alternatively, sound is just a breeze too fast for direct conscious perception.
