(any wind direction)

This image shows how commonly and how strongly the wind blows from different directions over a normal March. The biggest spokes point in the directions the wind most commonly blows from and the shade of blue indicates the strength, with the strongest winds shown by deep blue. It is based on 2964 NWW3 forecasts of wind since since 2007, at 3hr intervals, for the closest NWW3 model node to Double Point, located 21 km away (13 miles). There are too few recording stations world wide to use actual wind data. Invevitably some coastal places have very localized wind effects that would not be predicted by NWW3. According to the model, the dominant wind at Double Point blows from the W. If the rose graph shows a fairly circular pattern, it means there is no strong bias in wind direction at Double Point. By contrast, dominant spokes illustrate favoured directions, and the more the darkest shade of blue, the stronger the wind. Spokes point in the direction the wind blows from. During a typical March, the model suggests that winds are light enough for the sea to be glassy (light blue) about 15% of the time (5 days each March) and blows offshore 19% of the time (6 days in an average March). Over an average March winds stronger than >40kph (25mph) are expected on 2 days at Double Point
