...and in any case, as commander you will have taken a look at the weather prior to departure and as such will be aware of the strength and direction of the wind at your destination and your alternates. You will also have a view on the risks of the weather situation changing and be in a reasonable position to avoid having to land your machine outside its limits!

As such, if you check the ATIS and it is outside limits, then you should be in a poistion to go somewhere else with a runway that is more into wind.
