Is this supported by the Yahoo API? If so,please go into detail how this feature should work/look. Add mockups.

Yes, wind data is supported by Yahoo API. Chill, direction & speed are the three key elements of wind data. Probably these three values written in small font along with the temperature would do.

Maybe.Should anyone want to work on that, it has to be configurable.
"Weather" pretty much gets its info once after boot-up. You can re-load data, but if too many do that, they'll get blocked IIRC. Therefore, it makes sense to show e.g. min/max temperature and a very rough estimation of the weather condition of the next days. Wind speed and direction changes constantly and aren't suited that well for the non-live nature of Weather.
Maybe its just me, but for such a rough forecast, I'd ask for temperture and if it's sunny/rainy, but I wouldn't care if the wind the day after tomorrow blows from the west...

The data @ojasva ara talking about are present only for the current condition... IIRC the refresh rate for the free service is in hours (the server send this timeout to the app). So as pointed out by @humdingerb doesn't make a lot of sense.

Just as a note when you use a payed service the granularity for cc and forecast is different usually 20-30 min cc 1-4 hours forecast.
