WindMonitor™

The WindMonitor™ graphic gives you valuable wind data at a glance. To change the threshold setting of the WindMonitor™, click the Change Settings link. All locations will use the same threshold.

The WindMonitor™ graphical display uses a color-code and accompanying text to depict the status of your location.

Green

The wind forecast for the next 12 hours does not exceed the threshold.

Yellow

The wind forecast for the next 12 hours exceeds the threshold.

If the forecast remains above the threshold, the text within the monitor graphic states "forecast to continue".
If the forecast exceeds, but then drops below the threshold within the 12 hour period, an end time is provided.

Red

The actual wind speed for the current hour exceeds the threshold value.

About the WindMonitor™ graphical display:

The WindMonitor™ displays the status of current and forecasted wind speeds and/or gusts using both color and text descriptions.
The WindMonitor™ reviews forecast data for the next 12 hours and updates the color/text status if wind speeds and/or gusts are forecasted to exceed your threshold.
The default threshold value is 20 mph (32 km/h). Click the Change Settings link to set your preferred threshold. All locations use the same threshold setting.
