Even though I'm pretty sure they can't hear the chimes, when it gets very windy, I wrap them up and during thunderstorms (hurricane like storms), I bring them in.
Obviously, wind chimes that you cannot hear are fine. But, the ones that you can hear are not fine. My experience is that wind chime noise travels a lot further than some people think. The fact that some people like wind chimes has nothing to do with the issue. There are a lot of people who hate them.
