"the elements"?
add the 3rd sense too?

GF:
①名风和雨。
风雨交加
②名比喻艰难困苦的处境。
经风雨,见世面
③名比喻议论和传闻。
满城风雨
-----------------------------------------

Editor:
1) We have an entry for 满城风雨.
If the 3rd sense is used when it's not part of that idiom, we can add it to this entry.

2) the elements : Strong winds, heavy rain, or other kinds of bad weather.
‘Despite the rain and wind a good number of people braved the elements and supported the sale.’

J ~ The elements were howling around the ship.
船的四周风雨大作。

"We decided to brave the elements and go for a walk (= go for a walk despite the bad weather)."
我們決定冒著風雨去散步。
