It's happened since the car was new, so I am pretty sure I can rule out an issue with the tires. If this isn't happening to others, I might look at alignment or something with the front end. But checking here before I go to the dealer with it (hard to time a trip to the dealer with the weather).
I'm here in Phoenix as well but didn't drive the M850i yesterday. However, I've definitely been on the freeway here and on the recent road trip to CA in which there were significant cross winds (way more windy then yesterday or today) and the car didn't budge at all. Out of curiosity what setting were you in, i.e., Comfort, Sport, etc.?
