The winds associated with high states of non-magnetic (diskaccreting) cataclysmic variables are described and discussed. A quick summary of the basic phenomenology is given, and followed by a presentation of some of the more important recent developments in our understanding. The near-ubiquity of orbital-phase linked variability of the UV resonance lines (generally thought of as mainly wind-produced) is noted and its implications are considered. The impact of the much lower-thanexpected boundary layer luminosity upon mass loss rate determinations is also discussed. Current work on the role of radiation pressure (mediated by line opacity) is placed in context.
