Crossword Genius

Seems put out, agitated, wild (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tempestuous

'wild' is the definition.
(I know that wild can be written as tempestuous)

'seems put out agitated' is the wordplay.
'agitated' indicates anagramming the letters.
'seems'+'put'+'out'='seemsputout'
'seemsputout' with letters rearranged gives 'TEMPESTUOUS'.

(Other definitions for tempestuous that I've seen before include "Seems put out (anag)" , "Very stormy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
