confusing

[Circle to land, means that you make instrument approch for RWY xx and due to mainly strong wind, aircraft on the instrument approach procedure, having RWY in sight, may ask for Circling for another RWY. Pilot is performing that manoeuver constantly having RWY in sight and of course it is done visually.

Hi ATCO2:
I was wondering if the wind is too strong, is it possible for the aircraft to use another runway, what if it 's down to the wind?
