Should still be effective given the power it comes out with, but mostly due to the fact that you are supposed to deploy bear spray at an insanely close distance, not a ways away like people assume. As mentioned, you'd need gale force winds to make it totally ineffective at proper range.
Either way you're probably gonna be taking some backspray, but you can close your eyes exactly when needed, whereas the bear won't see it coming, and thus, gets the full impact.
