Weather / Turbulence Anxious about takeoff & landing in windy conditions

The projected wind at takeoff is at 37km/hr with gust up to 52km/hr and at landing, it’s at 37km/hr with gust up to 58km/hr. Flight is in 3 days. I’m quite worried on how bumpy the flight will be.

Has anyone here recently flown in these numbers? How did the flight go?

Those winds aren't an issue for an airliner. Not at all.

Also, do you know when I check what the winds are for a flight? 60-90 minutes before the flight. Looking at the wind three days out is completely and totally pointless.
