Wind Direction
Posted: 27 Oct 2016 05:40 AM
The featured chart displays a time series of wind direction reports from all automated
airport weather stations in the state. A low pressure system moved over the state yesterday
and a high pressure system settled into the state overnight. The impact of both systems on
the distribution of wind direction reports is interesting to look at! The chart shows consistent
wind direction reports on Tuesday from the east and southeast. The circulation around the
low pressure system on Wednesday spread all the reports to show all directions reported at
the same time in the state. The high pressure overnight effectively reversed all those
reports as the circulation is opposite. Kind of neat!
