Pilot Institute

A sudden wind shift, a 10-knot or greater speed increase, a 45-degree or more direction change, or gusts exceeding limits may also cause a SPECI. This includes the wind direction in degrees and the wind speed in knots. This can be when the weather stabilizes or when another report is issued.
