An easterly
Wind direction is where the wind has travelled from. So for example, if a wind of 5mph was coming from the south west there would be a 5mph south west wind. You could also describe this as a south westerly Force 2 Light Breeze using the Beaufort scale.
A north by northwest (NNW) wind at 6 mph is coming from the north by northwest direction. This means that the wind originates from that compass direction and is blowing toward the south by southeast. In meteorological terms, wind direction is always described based on where it comes from, not where it is going.
When you name a wind. You name it in the direction it is coming from, so a wind blowing toward the north comes from the south. It is therefore a South Wind.
If the wind is blowing in you face, then the center of the hurricane is to your right.
The direction from which the wind blows is known as the "wind direction." It is typically reported in degrees on a compass, with 0° indicating north, 90° east, 180° south, and 270° west. For example, a wind blowing from the north is referred to as a "north wind."
A west wind is blowing from the west towards the east.
A west wind blows from the west to the east.
The wind would be blowing from the northwest.
west east
No, it is an example for kinetic energy as the wind is blowing.
South west
A west wind or a "Zephyr".
A sea breeze.
West.
North west
It shows the direction where the wind is coming from. Like the North, South, East or west. Weather vane or wind vane does not measure anything, it just shows the direction the wind is out of, a wind monitor measures the force the wind is blowing, in mph or kph. Wind vanes indicate wind direction and when this information is recorded, describes the direction FROM which the wind is blowing. Wind vanes measure the direction in which the wind is blowing. anemometer The direction the wind is blowing from. So it measures wind direction.
