How does wind weather rocks?

The passage of pure air itself won't weather most rocks. However, as the wind moves over the ground, it tends to pick up very small particles of dust or even fine grit. As this grit and dust blows over rocks with the wind, the rock becomes abraded by the grit and dust. Over time, this will erode and weather the rocks.
