Spindata has partnered with myWindsock to bring myWindsock's Weather Impact™ metric (wImpact™ %) to all CTT events. Now all Spindata users can see how much harder (or easier) their race is likely to be than having no weather on the day!
myWindsock calculates the impact of weather on all CTT events, based on a combination of wind speed and direction, and air density (read more about this metric at myWindsock.com). Normally a premium metric requiring a subscription at myWindsock, the data has been made available to users of Spindata and is displayed on each event page ahead of the event as a forecast, and afterwards based on observations, when it can be compared to Spindata's float metric.
Clicking on the myWindsock widget, on a Spindata event page, takes you to the myWindsock event forecast. If you have a myWindsock subscription, you can anticipate how an event will feel with Feels Like Elevation™, discover the optimum pacing strategy, and reveal your CdA with post event analysis.
Our thanks to Ben Norbury at myWindsock for working on this new functionality with us.
