what's the wind direction
What is Wind Direction ? Wind direction is the direction from which the wind is blowing; the direction from which the air is moving. It is not the direction the wind is blowing toward. Wind direction is measured with reference to 360 degrees on the compass (true North), and expressed to the nearest degree, going in a clockwise direction, or to any one of the 16 points on a compass (N, S, SE, WSE, etc...).
