How does wind store potential energy?

Wind (air) may have a bit of gravitational potential energy, since it's up there and not on the ground. But the real, substantial energy of wind, and the energy we take out of it to turn things and generate electrical energy, is its kinetic energy. That's the reason that 'windmill farms' are built in places with steady wind. If there's no wind, then there's no kinetic energy available to be robbed from it.

None of the above ... Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy.

No, it is an example for kinetic energy as the wind is blowing.

Did wind possesses both kinetic and potential energy?

Blowing wind has kinetic energy. This can be transformed into electrical energy using a turbine to transform the wind into rotational kinetic energy and a generator or alternator to convert the rotational kinetic energy to electrical energy. Water above a dam has potential energy from gravity and also from the weight of the water around it. Once it is moving or flowing down through the pipes it then has kinetic energy.
