Let’s Play The Who Am I Game!

I can be many things but seriously, who am I?
I may be silent, and you don’t know I am there
but give me a moment and I might decide to deafen you instead.
I am moody, I can be calm one day
and throw things around the next.
I might be invisible
or all that you see.
I can soothe like a massage
or be annoying as ever.
I do a great job at drying
but I love to throw water around.
I can literally be stinking hot
or icy cold – either or.
I can run with the best
or not move at all.
Tell me who am I. The wind of course!
