I am in the same boat.  Higher winds = more wood usage.  I believe a 6' stockade fence on at least 3 sides WILL happen next year.  Cold and calm always uses less than warmer and windy for me.

In my case, the wind isn't affecting the boiler itself but it really sucks the heat out of the house.  It gets pretty damn cold in a couple of my rooms.

I've actually though about building a small wall in front of my boiler to shield it.
