A few cautions:
- Only two locations have sensors right at the beach (most accurate data) - Centennial and Locust
- Comox Airport likely under reports for both Goose Spit and Air Force Beach
- Ballenas likely over reports for Columbia Beach
- Smith Island likely over report for Joseph Whidbey State Park and Ebey Landing
- Smith Island data includes both west and southeast wind events
Overall
- Most days: Columbia Beach (Ballenas), Whidbey Island, Locust, Comox, Boundary Bay (from perception I would place Comox much higher on the list)
- Most days over 25 mph: Same order with Comox now over taking Locust - Columbia Beach, Whidbey Island, Comox, Locust, Boundary Bay
- Summer: Columbia Beach (Ballenas), Whidbey Island, Locust, Comox, Centennial
- Comox Airport likely under reports for both Goose Spit and Air Force Beach
- This one shows lower than Columbia Beach (Ballenas) and lower over than I would have thought
- 11 months have 20 mph days
- 8 months of the year have 25 mph days
- Winter month are all good with February and November offering the most days over 25 mph
- Ballenas likely over reports for Columbia Beach
- Wind througout the year - all 12 months show 20 mph days
- 11 months of the year have 25 mph days
- November and December the two months with the most days over 25 mph
- Spring (Jan, Feb, Mar) has more days than fall (Oct, Nov, Dec)
- Strongest showing in the summer - this rings true with sessions at Pipers
- Wind direction shows some northwest days which also rings true for San Pareil and Pipers
- Fewer days
- Cold weather sailing dominates
- 7 months of the year have 20 mph days
- only 3 months of the year have 25 mph days - February, November and December (suprised March doesn't show better)

- Summer is kite weather
- Look at all the east wind (about half)
- More wind than Centennial
- 12 months have 20 mph days
- 8 months of the year have 25 mph days including April, July and October (warmer)
- Spring (Jan, Feb, Mar) and fall (Oct, Nov, Dec) are fairly balanced (number of days and number of strong days)
- Stronger showing in than Centennial in the late summer through the early fall
- April has the most days, but February, November and December show more days over 25 mph
- South wind dominates (the north wind may be over stated as the sensor was misreading direction for a while)

- 10 months of the year with days over 25 mph
- Strong showing in the late summer through the early fall
