The Wind Agent puts the forecast at working height
A wind instrument for checking the probability that wind will exceed a chosen limit at a specified height and location.
- For
- People making wind-sensitive decisions at work or outdoors
- Worth noticing
- The page says its ensemble is read at the nearest level for an 85 m example, rather than interpolated there.
Field notes
The homepage shows sample probabilities for several situations, including a crane example at Dublin Port and a sprayer in Meath. Its description of the forecast levels is not fully consistent: it says values are interpolated to a named working height, but the 85 m example says the ensemble is read at the nearest level, 80 m. The page presents saved records as a way to retain and share the inputs behind a reading, while cautioning that the instrument does not clear a job or activity.
