  1. It's the direction the wind is coming.


  2. When meteorologists state the wind direction, they state the direction the wind is coming FROM. If its says NW, that means the wind is coming from the Northwest. A cold front must have recently passed through for you to have NW winds.

  3. They are coming from the NW.
