Windrose


Description:  Windrose plots are utilized by meteorologists to decipher the wind speed and direction in a certain area.  They show the frequency of the wind blowing and from which direction it is coming from.  The farther away from the center of the plot the more frequent the winds are.  This plot shows winds moving in all directions along with how many knots the winds are blowing.
