      Hello from Agios Mama beach1000055841.png , Thessaloniki, Greece! There is strong wind blowing from the sea, accurate direction but far more strong than 14km/h. It is maybe above 30km/h. And the waves are not 0.1m but at least 50cm.

        The wind displayed is not actual weather, it is the weather forecast by weather model.
        Real wind data in Windy is provided by Reported wind i.e. wind observed in weather stations.
        Then the wind forecast in Windy is the averaged wind over 10 minutes. May it would useful that you check the Wind gusts.
