is the wind coming from or going to
Wind direction Wind direction is reported by the direction from which it originates. For example, a northerly wind blows from the north to the south.[1] Wind direction is usually reported in cardinal directions or in azimuth degrees. Wind direction is measured in degrees clockwise from due north. Consequently, a wind blowing from the north has a wind direction of 0 degrees; a wind blowing from the east has a wind direction of 90 degrees; a wind blowing from the south has a wind direction of 180 degrees; and a wind blowing from the west has a wind direction of 270 degrees. In general, wind directions are measured in units from 0째 to 360째, but can alternatively be expressed from -180째 to 180째.
