Our Weather stations read the wind 24 hours 7 days a week
This data is sent to our server every 3 minutes.
We give you the current wind Speed & Direction, plus the past wind info
- from 15 mins, 30 mins and 45 mins ago.
These four readings gives you a feel of how the wind is developing or dropping.
Note the format
Average Speed - Average Direction - low wind - High Wind
High windspeeds are one factor to be concerned about for your safety
but we were the first to consider what the lowest speed in the same period was.
This difference between the low and High wind speed allows you to see how gusty it is.
Normally the more consistent the wind is the more enjoyment you get out of the wind.
Another factor to take note of - how much is the direction swinging backwards and forwards?
