    Sorry, the text I shared was wrong, this is the correct text.

    While there are no hard-and-fast rules to distinguish between the two terms, breezy is generally used to describe light-moderate winds in pleasant weather, like tropical breezes. The American Meteorological Society’s “Glossary of Meteorology” defines a breeze as a light wind.

    We might use breezy to describe a mild day with winds of 12 to 22 mph, while we would use windy for stronger speeds, say 25 to 50 mph. Windy would always be used to describe inclement or stormy conditions. Many people consider breezy a warm-season term, while windy is a term that can be used year-round.

    I found this text and I think it explains the difference well.

    While there are no hard and fast rules to distinguish between the two terms, windy is generally used to describe light to moderate winds in a pleasant climate, such as tropical breezes. The American Meteorological Society's "Glossary of Meteorology" defines a breeze as a gentle wind.

    We could use windy to describe a mild day with winds of 12-22 mph, while we would use wind for stronger speeds, say 25-50 mph. Windy would always be used to describe inclement or stormy conditions. Many people consider windy to be a warm season term, while windy is a term that can be used throughout the year.
