These are the forecasted maximum (highest) temperature for the day and the forecasted minimum (lowest) temperature at night. Day is from 9am to 9pm and night is from 9pm to 9am. Temperature, pressure and winds are all in balance and the atmosphere is constantly changing to preserve this balance. This is why the UK sees such changeable weather. Pressure pattern Atmospheric pressure doesn’t only change with height, it also varies across the surface of the Earth. In the beginning, there are just four main wind directions: north, south, east, and west. Most often, on compass, to shorten the place, they are designated by the letters: N, S, E, and W.
As seen here, some surface weather maps include groupings of numbers and symbols known as weather station plots. Station plots describe the weather at a station location. They include reports of a variety of weather data at that location: The distortion of the air flow by the structure supporting the transducers is a problem which can be minimized by applying corrections based on calibrations in a wind tunnel. Contours of equal mean sea-level pressure (MSLP), measured in hectopascals (hPa). MSLP maxima (anticyclones) and minima (depressions) are marked by the letters H (High) and L (Low) on weather charts. First, the barb has three parts: a long line, an extra lines on the long line (called "feathers") and/or triangles also called "flags", and most often a dot.The normal unit of wind speed is the knot ( nautica l mile per hour = 0.51 m sec-1 = 1.15 mph). Wind direction is measured relative to true north ( n o t magnetic north) and is reported from where the wind is blowing. An easterly wind blows from the east or 90 degrees, a southerly from the south or 180 degrees and a westerly from the west or 270 degrees. An example of a wind barb used in the Windy.app. Valerya Milovanova/ Windy.app How to read wind barbs?
Weather forecasts typically give the direction of the wind along with its speed, for example a "northerly wind at 15 km/h" is a wind blowing from the north at a speed of 15 km/h. [1] If wind gusts are present, their speed may also be reported. At the same time this wind speed and direction map in Windy.app can show you also wind gusts, and much more. Read the complete guide to the Wind map in Windy.app. 4. Wind barbs In this short tutorial, we'll tell about the top five ways from simple to more complex: 1. Wind arrows It is interesting that in the Ancient Greece, the cardinal directions were also identified by the different winds. They were Boreas from the north, Notos from the south, Eurus from the east, and Zephyrus from the west. They are also known as the " Classical compass winds". Therefore, the concept of wind direction is very closely related to the concept of wind rose.Glossary of Meteorology (2009). "Pitot tube". American Meteorological Society.

Wind speed normally increases with height above the earth's surface and is much affected by such factors as the roughness of the ground and the presence of buildings, trees and other obstacles in the vicinity. You can view live satellite images of the latest storms and wildfires, and explore weather forecast maps of wind, rain, temperature, pressure and more for yourlocation. Sources & Attribution The speed represents the average wind speed expected at that point in time, i.e. the mean wind speed you may encounter (in reality the wind will strengthen and lull constantly above and below this value). The symbols on the forecast are automatically updated every hour. We use the most recent observation data from across the UK and around the world. This helps to make the forecasts as accurate as possible. In the Windy.app wind barbs are located in the nodes of the weather model grid — points on the map where the weather is predicted. This excludes interpolation (forecast errors) — the forecast is as accurate as possible. In this implementation, it is a unique feature of the Windy.app you will not find in other weather mobile applications.The wind barbs source is one of the 10 weather models used in the app. It's updated every three hours. Where to get wind barbs?The first and the most important thing to remember: wind direction is always determined by where the wind is blowing FROM, not where it is blowing towards.
