Weather
Landing XXR ZZZ during gusty conditions; received too low terrain while on short final. Low-level windshear reported on east side of field. Wind gust took airspeed up to 175. Neither pilot flying or pilot not flying saw airspeed go above flaps 30 speed of 175; or any movement in flap retraction due to airspeed. Original flap 30 speed was 147. Added 15 for gust. Reported stable at 500 ft. AGL with 1;000 FPM descent. Gusty conditions from above FAF to 100 ft. AGL; but under control. Largest gust after 500 ft. AGL stable call; approximately 150 ft. AGL. On short final; I thought 'too low terrain' was an erroneous warning. Visual conditions from FAF inbound. Touchdown uneventful. Wrote up maintenance discrepancy for possible overspeed due to unusual GPWS warning.
B737 Captain reported encountering strong gusty winds during final approach and was able to land safely after recovering control.
