Wind Stats
This picture illustrates how often and how strongly the wind blows from different directions through a typical March. The longest spokes point in the directions the wind most commonly blows from and the shade of blue suggests the strength, with the darkest shade of blue showing the strongest winds. It is based on 2964 NWW3 forecasts of wind since since 2007, at 3hr intervals, for the closest NWW3 model node to Parque Tayrona, located 24 km away (15 miles). There are too few recording stations world wide to use actual wind data. Without question some coastal places have very localized wind effects that would not be predicted by NWW3. According to the model, the most common wind at Parque Tayrona blows from the NE. If the rose plot shows a nearly round shape, it means there is no strong bias in wind direction at Parque Tayrona. Converseley, dominant spokes show favoured directions, and the more dark blue, the stronger the wind. Spokes point in the direction the wind blows from. Over an average March, the model suggests that winds are light enough for the sea to be glassy (the lightest shade of blue) about 0.3% of the time (0 days each March) and blows offshore just 0.4% of the time (0 days in an average March). In a typical March winds stronger than >40kph (25mph) are expected on 14 days at Parque Tayrona
