Just curious: back before life forms came in (think: rock and water only), was there any wind?

Question

As well: Was there any waves before life forms came in?

Answer 1

Yes you would've had high and low pressure systems,tides

Answer 2

Of course; Wind has nothing to do with life. It is created by effects of Sun. Sun was there, so wind was also there. But if you really ggo back in time, there was a time when there was no Atmosphere. At that time there was no wind.
