In continuing my search from last week, I found on NOAA’s website a sensor in the financial district that seems to have data from 1936 until today. The only overlapping data between that and the SFO one is max 1-minute wind speed, so I will at least be able to compare that. I’ll try to download that and get working on the analysis.

SFO Wind Speed
This has felt like a particularly windy year, so we’ve been wondering if it really has been getting windier here or if that’s just our perception.
I got the wind speeds for the past ~40 years from a sensor at SFO from NOAA, and tried looking at it in different ways to see. So far it doesn’t really look like things are getting windier, but there’s certainly more ways I could analyze the data to get a better idea.
