Narrative:
On takeoff out runway 16R; at approximately 90 knots an aural alert of windshear ahead was sounded followed by a windshear alert on the FMA. Captain called for a reject and initiated the reject at 100 knots. He taxied the aircraft off the runway and we complied with the appropriate QRH checklists. Also; the fom was referenced as well. The aircraft and the weather was deemed acceptable by all 3 of us to attempt another takeoff after about 15-20 minutes and we subsequently took off uneventfully.wind gusts were the probable cause; the aircraft was fully functional and no other factors contributed to this event.aircraft worked as advertised. ATC was helpful. The crew referenced the appropriate checklist and company issued manuals. Weather was the causal factor in this case.
