Wind Rose Plots

Wind Rose Plots show the percentage of time the wind blows in a certain direction. Below you will find several Wind Rose Plots I created by using archived data from the year of 1992. The Wind Rose Plots depict the direction the wind was blowing in Macon, Georgia on various days throughout 1992. Here is a picture of the location the wind speeds were collected.
