"High wind days" counts the days when the wind exceeded 38 km/h: that's the limit of our inflatable screens. Beyond that, we deflate them — a matter of minutes.

The given time is when the image becomes visible, not sunset: there are still 30 to 45 minutes of daylight after that.

What has already happened in peak season

The most violent days recorded at Salisbury between June and September since 1995. An average never shows them; yet they decide an evening.
