And that is just on the Greenwich Meridian:-) Come here and it can be up
to 11 degrees out.

Thanks for all your kind posts, but no-one has answered the true question of
the way the anemometer should point ?

Should it be set up to point North or South to get accurate recordings.

Not enough information provided. The only answer anyone can give is it
should point in the direction the maker set the calibration.
