Blew

The sky grew darker and darker, and the wind blew harder and harder.

The wind blew in gusts.

A strong wind blew all day long.

The wind blew harder yet when we reached the top of the hill.

A whistle blew, and the boat slowly began to pull out of port.

The engineers blew up the bridge because it was about to collapse.

Immediately after it caught fire, the chemical factory blew up.

The smoke blew away.

The media blew the whole thing out of proportion.

I blew my whole bonus on shopping and travel.
