    Hi Lacey,

    Thanks for your question!

    I’d like to throw this question back to you – how would having this information inform your design choice?

    Wind direction can vary on a number of factors, such as location, and even if the majority of the time it comes from one direction, the unpredictability of weather means that there will certainly be times in which the wind direction changes. Your design should be flexible and adaptable in order to account for all these variables.

    I hope this is helpful in shaping some considerations for your proposal, please feel free to reach out with any further questions!

    Thanks,
    Rachel
