Are the wind readings accurate?
Wind speeds have been checked at the sea front and the duck pond using a commercial, hand-held anemometer. These were then cross-checked with the results from exmouthwind.co.uk. It is important to remember that the given reading is for the average wind speed over a period of time. This gives an overall picture of wind conditions rather than an individual’s perception of the wind speed, which is often influenced by gusts.
