(any wind direction)

This chart illustrates how frequently and how strongly the wind blows from different directions over a normal March. The biggest spokes point in the directions the wind most commonly blows from and the shade of blue suggests the strength, with the strongest winds shown by the darkest shade of blue. It is based on 3460 NWW3 forecasts of wind since since 2007, at 3hr intervals, for the closest NWW3 model node to Tuahine Point, located 33 km away (21 miles). There are insufficient recording stations world wide to use actual wind data. Invevitably some coastal places have very localized wind effects that would not be predicted by NWW3. According to the model, the most common wind at Tuahine Point blows from the SSE. If the rose plot shows a nearly round shape, it means there is no strong bias in wind direction at Tuahine Point. By contrast, dominant spokes represent favoured directions, and the more dark blue, the stronger the wind. Spokes point in the direction the wind blows from. During a typical March, the model suggests that winds are light enough for the sea to be glassy (pale blue) about 8% of the time (2 days each March) and blows offshore 24% of the time (7 days in an average March). Over an average March wind stronger than >40kph (25mph) was predicted for only a single days at Tuahine Point
