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 La Roche Percee (Bonhomme de Bourail) blows from the S. If the rose plot shows a nearly round shape, it means there is no strong bias in wind direction at La Roche Percee (Bonhomme de Bourail).
