well, wind direction, actually. My friend and I are travelling from the Normandy beaches to Minden in North Germany. We'll be skirting the coast up to Zeeland, and then going pretty well due west. It's going to be late may early June next year. Where will the prevailing winds coming from? I'm guessing they'll be westerly, though my friend says they'll be cominfrom the north off the North Sea, which, thinking aout it, seems very possible.

Hope it helps some.
cheers
Winds blow mostly from the west to the east round these parts.
Germany is east of Normandy. Are you sure you meant to write "due west" in your original post?
Sorry, yes, meant to write "due east". New baby, long nights, little sleep :)
Congrats on the new baby!
You will definitely be going the right direction by going from west to east. Trust me!!! :D
Thanks for that. Much appreciated.
