At Joplin, MO it was a windy month of March 2025. That is the green line shown in the graphs that go as far back as 1980. (Note this dual graph is best viewed on a tablet, laptop, or desktop computer). Continuing, the first graph is the average wind speed and the second graph is the average wind gust. Notice that there have been windier (wind speeds) in the March months. For example, look at the late 80s, early 90s, and late 90s.
