Know Your Wind Rose!
Wind Rose Plots are a great way to view information about wind direction in a given area. The image and link below represent the Santa Fe Airport’s wind direction, and while individual locations in the area can vary a great deal, the plot does tell us the predominant winds come for the North and Southwest. In my book Harvest the Rain I talk about the importance of windbreaks and their effectiveness in conserving water. The link below is nice because you can go through month by month and see how to best orient your windbreak strategies.
