(any wind direction)

The rose diagram illustrates how frequently and how strongly the wind blows from different directions over a normal March. The longest spokes point in the directions the wind most commonly blows from and the shade of blue indicates the strength, with dark blue strongest. It is based on 3458 NWW3 forecasts of wind since since 2007, at 3hr intervals, for the closest NWW3 model node to South End, located 25 km away (16 miles). There are insufficient recording stations world wide to use actual wind data. No doubt some coastal places have very localized wind effects that would not be predicted by NWW3. According to the model, the dominant wind at South End blows from the SE. If the rose graph shows a fairly circular pattern, it means there is no strong bias in wind direction at South End. On the other hand, dominant spokes represent favoured directions, and the more deep 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 9% of the time (3 days each March) and blows offshore 27% of the time (6 days in an average March). Over an average March wind stronger than >40kph (25mph) was forecast for only a single days at South End
