Picture a wheel with spokes. Each spoke represents a direction. The top spoke is north, the bottom is south. The left spoke is west, the right spoke is east. N| W---------------E S| Between each of these spokes are other spokes: northeast is between north and east. Northwest is between north and west, and so on. Between each of these are other spokes. North-northeast is between north and northeast, east-northeast is between northeast and east, and so on--sort of like the numbers on the face of a clock: only, instead of the numbers 1-12, this clock's face shows the numbers 1-16, with 16 at the top. Okay, so if a wind is blowing from the east-northeast (an east-northeast wind) it is blowing toward the west-southwest, directly opposite the face of the clock.
