Winds blowing at 5-10 mph from the WNW direction can be considered mild rather than windy. Generally, wind speeds below 10 mph are often described as light breezes, which may be felt but typically do not have a significant impact on outdoor activities. Winds in this range can create a pleasant atmosphere but are unlikely to cause any disruption.
The opposite of ESE on the compass is WNW (West Northwest).
