DESCRIPTION

Via Weather::Com::Wind one can access speed and direction (in degrees, short and long textual description) of the wind. Wind is usually an object belonging to current conditions or to a forecast (not implemented yet).

This class will not be updated automatically with each call to one of its methods. You need to call the "wind()" method of the parent object again to update your object.

CONSTRUCTOR

You usually would not construct an object of this class yourself. This is implicitely done when you call the "wind()" method of one current conditions or forecast object.

METHODS

speed()

This attribute is dynamic language enabled.

direction_long([$language])

Returns the direction of the wind as long textual description (North, East, Southwest, etc.).

These directions are being translated if you specified a language in the parameters you provided to your Weather::Com::Finder.
