FAQ

How windy is Rosetta today?

In Rosetta today, wind speeds are around 22 km/h. Gusts can be higher, especially in exposed spots and during passing fronts.

What are the wind gusts in Rosetta today?

Gusts are brief peaks above the sustained wind. Use the wind panel to compare sustained speed versus gust potential through the day.

What wind direction is forecast for Rosetta?

Wind direction can shift with passing systems. The wind section shows direction and changes over time, which can affect feel and exposure.

Why does Rosetta feel windier at times?

Wind is driven by pressure differences. Stronger gradients and showery/frontal weather typically produce more frequent gusts.

What is the difference between wind and gusts?

Wind is the sustained speed; gusts are short-lived surges that can be significantly higher, particularly in unstable or frontal conditions.
