(any wind direction)

The figure illustrates how frequently and how strongly the wind blows from different directions through a typical March. The biggest spokes point in the directions the wind most commonly blows from and the shade of blue implies the strength, with deep blue showing the strongest winds. It is based on 3460 NWW3 forecasts of wind since since 2007, at 3hr intervals, for the closest NWW3 model node to Lepus Beach (Haida-Gwaii), located 36 km away (22 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 Lepus Beach (Haida-Gwaii) blows from the W. If the rose diagram shows a close to circular outline, it means there is no strong bias in wind direction at Lepus Beach (Haida-Gwaii). By contrast, dominant spokes illustrate favoured directions, and the more dark blue, the stronger the wind. Spokes point in the direction the wind blows from. Over an average March, the model suggests that winds are light enough for the sea to be glassy (pale blue) about 6% of the time (2 days each March) and blows offshore 25% of the time (7 days in an average March). During a typical March winds stronger than >40kph (25mph) are expected on 3 days at Lepus Beach (Haida-Gwaii)
