This chart describes 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 deep blue showing the strongest winds. It is based on 2468 NWW3 forecasts of wind since since 2007, at 3hr intervals, for the closest NWW3 model node to Goolwa Rivermouth, located 59 km away (37 miles). There are too few 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 prevailing wind at Goolwa Rivermouth blows from the SSW. If the rose graph shows a fairly circular pattern, it means there is no strong bias in wind direction at Goolwa Rivermouth. Converseley, dominant spokes illustrate favoured directions, and the more the darkest shade of 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 23% of the time (7 days in an average March). Over an average March winds stronger than >40kph (25mph) are expected on 2 days at Goolwa Rivermouth
