Wind riding

I live in northern Nevada. Lake Tahoe is out my back window, twelve miles away. Having the Sierras makes for some windy conditions. I have my own rule. If the winds gusts are over 30mph I don't ride to work. I have been wondering if you can calculate hill climbs verses wind. How much is too much wind to ride in for you? Oh, I am also at 5,000 feet in elevation.
