Had a look but can't find anything that isn't general; anyone know anywhere with recorded wind speed data? I was on Hen Mountain today and have never experienced such heavy, strong persistent winds; intrigued to know what it was gusting / average wind speed.

In reply to ksjs: Irish wind atlas online. its a data set of wind speeds at 50 75 and 100 meter heights.

In reply to Aigen: Thanks but the Mournes are in Northern Ireland; Irish Wind Atlas is Ireland only.

There are no weather stations on the Mourne summits so unlikely the data exists.

In reply to ksjs: The data doesn't exist, I was looking this up before. The closest weather station is Warren Point but it wouldn't be as windy as Hen. I have had some of the best and worst days of climbing at Hen, awsome, scary crag.
