Though grammatically correct, looks like a funny sort of nonsense.
Fortunately, we haven't got Windy as a person's name among the options.
Ohh....you made my day :D
And yeah the correct answer is "wind" even in Hungary :)

There's a very strong ____ blowing
The correct answer is Wind.
There's a very strong wind blowing.
I have searched about the meaning of "Windy" that means having a lot of wind.
On Google dictionary has two meanings:
a. Windy: having a lot of wind
b. Windy: having some wind.
