Canada Bahamas predominant winds

[Québec 1]

Noticed the predominant winds are not forecast for the Gulf Stream from around the 12 to the 25th of march. Looks like NW or WNNW blowing at 20 to 30 mph. Might just visit Florida

Over the last week, in Punta Gorda winds have been between 5 and 15 knots.

My research says that NE is the prevailing direction.
Curiously, I could not detect any pattern from actual observations

This forecast looks pretty representative.

Then a leisurly 120 mile meander south.


I'll be checking PM's for the rest of the day, then it will be very intermittant.
