Which direction does the wind blow when it's blowing out?

edit: cause right now it's blowing 11 mph SW and I'm not sure what the implications of that are

I wondered the same thing a while back and found this map. http://maps.travelape.com/cgi-bin/mqinterconnect
So if it's blowing SW it looks like it's blowing straight in.

thank you very much-o mr. roboto

No, it's just the opposite. A SW wind means the wind is blowing out to left.

I wonder, if the wind is blowing in, how much it affects the direction of falling concrete chunks at Wrigley?
:-o

No, no, no. If you hear "SW wind at 15mph" that means it's blowing FROM the SW TO the NE - the wind orientation is always the direction the wind is blowing FROM.

If you don't believe me, just watch the game so far... 8-o
