Agreed. I have maintained a log for many seasons now of wind direction realized in specific locations versus what is in the forecast and what is detected where the truck is parked. :clap:

I do this too I will hike back to my spots periodically with different winds and confirm the winds for my data

also measuring wind speed is valuable I carry a kestrel wind meter for this really helps on the so called low percentage days when the wind is howling I have special trees for those times.

You got a link for that meter ghost?

no but if you google hand held wind meter you will find them I bought mine from midway usa I think. I originally bought mine for shooting my bolt guns over a thousand yards.

It looks like wondfonder now wants you to pay for more detailed wind direction history. It posts one historical wind direction. Is there another source that’s being used for free historical wind direction info?
