Just to add to the guide, you can get a small bit of a headstart between winds by waiting for your controller to stop vibrating. At that point, it’s safe to move forward, even though the wind hasn’t quite stopped yet (it will a second or two later).

Shouldn't this be flagged as missable? I didn't get it as I didn't realize this was an ach, but I have no way of "retrying" this section short of restarting the game.

CHAPTER 2 - SANDSTORM ACHIEVEMENT
As chapter 2 starts, as you get near to the first building a storm starts to blow, you need to make it to the large red temple without being blown backwards by the wind so you need to shelter several times before you reach this. As long as you are under cover you are safe, just wait for the wind to stop blowing and you can move forward. To give you a bit more time you, if you have vibration switched on your controller will stop vibrating as soon as you can move which is a bit before the wind appears to have died down on screen.
This achievement can be missed, if you do get blown back by the wind you can use chapter select once you complete the game to go back and get it.
You start working on this achievement from the beginning of this video but following the full video to the end will make sure that you don't miss any of the Mementos which are needed for the Memento Achievement at the end of the game.

Great walkthrough videos - I started following when I had trouble in the sandstorm & I used them all the way through the rest of the game. Thank you!

In chapter 2, you can start from 2nd checkpoint.
Do not get blown away by the sandstorm, you are immune while inside buildings or in block form.
Timing is pretty short so do not go if you are not synchronized.

Chapter 2 - First Checkpoint
In this chapter, you'll be introduced to sandstorms that periodically roll through on set frequencies, and if you're caught in them, they blow you backwards. You need to be "inside" a building to be safe from them, and this achievement tasks you with getting through the first part of the chapter without ever being blown back by a sandstorm. If you do get caught by one, pause, choose to quit to the main menu, and then continue your game to reload back at your most recent checkpoint. The windows are tight in a few spots, meaning there isn't room to explore or figure anything out. You need to just beeline from one safe place to the next. Thankfully there are only a handful of such spots, so it doesn't take more than a few minutes to run through this section of the chapter.
