The Boiler Wind Stats

(% offshore)

(any wind direction)

The figure describes how commonly and how strongly the wind blows from different directions through a typical March. The largest spokes point in the directions the wind most commonly blows from and the shade of blue suggests the strength, with dark blue strongest. It is based on 3460 NWW3 forecasts of wind since since 2007, at 3hr intervals, for the closest NWW3 model node to The Boiler, located 33 km away (21 miles). There are too few recording stations world wide to use actual wind data. Without question some coastal places have very localized wind effects that would not be predicted by NWW3. According to the model, the most common wind at The Boiler blows from the SW. If the rose graph shows a fairly circular pattern, it means there is no strong bias in wind direction at The Boiler. 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. Over an average March, the model suggests that winds are light enough for the sea to be glassy (pale blue) about 5% of the time (2 days each March) and blows offshore 50% of the time (16 days in an average March). In a typical March winds stronger than >40kph (25mph) are expected on 5 days at The Boiler
