Windrose


A Windrose is a circular graph that plots wind speed and wind direction over a specific period of time. Windroses can contain up to three wind direction elements: the prevailing wind direction, the prevailing energy direction and the average turbulence intensity. This Windrose is for Scottsbluff, NE from 1996 through 2005, showing that the prevailing winds come mainly from the NW and SE.
