Agree with previous poster - the only effective way to get rid of wind noise is to do it while you are recording - with a blimp if the wind is very light and the addition of a dead cat if the wind picks up.
The effectiveness of the blimp depends on the amount of dead air between the mic and the inside of the blimp, more is better.
The foam types, even with dead cats over them are not any use in other than the lightest flutter. I only use them on a boom indoors to cut out induced wind from boom movement, or if the mic is stationary, then from slight currents from warm/cold air drafts. Actually I use the foam that came with my DPA short shotgun all the time indoors. It is really good indoors and it is lightweight and discrete. Outdoors I always use a Rycote blimp, 99% of the time with a dead cat.
