Question 12 No matter what time of year, the different lake breeze effects hardly ever reach Rockford. To reach us, the wind needs to be strong out of the east or northeast. Based on the Chicago wind rose about what percent of the year is wind out of the East or ENE?

Determining Wind Speed and Direction without Instruments When determining wind direction it is important to remember that the wind always blows from a direction. For example, the lake breeze is blowing from the lake, a north wind is blowing from the north If you do not have a map or compass to determine the direction, it helps to remember that most city streets run north/south or east/west Likewise, the sun rises on the eastern horizon and sets in the western horizon. Another helpful observation tool is Buys-Ballot's Law. This helps you locate the direction of the nearest low pressure. We want to know where the low pressures are because they are associated with doudiness, precipitation, and storms. Simply stated. Buys-Ballot's Law is "With the wind at your back, the low is off to your left." To estimate wind speed, a sea captain named Beaufort created the following scale Beaufort Scale Beaufort number 0 1 234 5 6 7 8 00 9 10 11 12 Wind Speed (mph) Under 1 4-7 8-12 13-18 19-24 25-31 12-18 39-45 47-56 Seaman's term Calm Light Air Light Breeze Gentle Breeze Moderate Breeze Fresh Breeze Strong Breeze Moderate Gale Fresh Gale Strong Gale Whole Gale 55-63 64-72 73 or higher Storm Hurricane force Effects on Land Camere vertically Smoke drift indicates wird direction vares de c HOW wed felt on face a vares beg to M Leaves, small teigs in constant Dust, leaves and lose paper p small branches move Small trees begin to Lange branche whiding reard in in motion Whole trees in motion revistance fel wang against the wind Swigs and met bra Sight structure dage site fro Sede experienced duracanagem, Very rarely experienced on land
To complete your tab, I want you to make at least four daily observations of wind speed and direction Complete the table and submit to finish the lab. (One example is shown below for you.
