Fizou Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Look under conditions or in briefing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wind will give direction and strength. Example: Light from North. (In CMSF & CMA the Conditions have the category: Civilian Density which effects unconventional operations. CMBS has Electronic Warfare) In your screenshot the compass/direction finder has you looking north at 12 noon. The wind is blowing east to west. Not sure of the wind strength from the screenshot but it will say under menu - conditions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockinHarry Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I´d say "coming from north-east" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way to tell for sure is to view it from directly overhead, like view 6 or 7. But checking Conditions in Menu like MOS suggested should tell you what you want to know.
