record used in this analysis was 30 years. Observed wind data were adjusted 

 by appropriate conversions to overwater conditions and an elevation of 10 m. 

 Statistical analyses were then performed to determine return intervals for wind 

 conditions. 



The approach used to estimate the return intervals for winds was to divide 

 the wind observations into the 16 principal compass directions. The 

 probability of observing a particular wind condition is the product of the 

 probability of observing a particular wind speed and the probability of 

 observing a particular wind direction. In order to determine values that
