Some say that the earth/was feverish and trembled.” (2.3.58-65)The chaos caused Duncan's death. The winds are like screams of death.

Lust, sir, both provokes and does not provoke. It provokes desire, but takes away performance. Therefore, drinking a lot can be said to be a misunderstanding with lust. It makes and ruins it; excites him and takes him away; persuades and discourages him; it makes him resist and not resist; in short, he misunderstands him in his sleep, and, proving him wrong, abandons him. (2.3.27-35) (pg. 61)Porter is telling Macduff that drinking makes you sleep.
