title: Plot Wind Barb in R
body: <p>This is more a question to see if anyone has seen anything like this in their travels. I am working with a lot of weather data and I would like to plot wind based on <a href="https://www.google.ca/search?q=wind+barb+R&amp;espv=2&amp;biw=1920&amp;bih=1115&amp;tbm=isch&amp;imgil=E1NutljD2cP95M%253A%253BgWMVCSWYpXEVgM%253Bhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fmatplotlib.org%25252Fexamples%25252Fpylab_examples%25252Fbarb_demo.html&amp;source=iu&amp;pf=m&amp;fir=E1NutljD2cP95M%253A%252CgWMVCSWYpXEVgM%252C_&amp;usg=__VPc39S9RYmsCH1Lh-yDm9vM_ZSQ%3D&amp;ved=0CC8QyjdqFQoTCPqWhYaJicgCFYJQiAodg-ADdg&amp;ei=iXYAVrquNYKhoQSDwY-wBw#imgrc=E1NutljD2cP95M%3A&amp;usg=__VPc39S9RYmsCH1Lh-yDm9vM_ZSQ%3D" rel="nofollow">wind barbs</a>. </p>
  
  <p>I have looked into the package <code>RadioSonde</code> however its <code>plotwind()</code> function is not doing the job I had anticipated. It does have a good example of the type of data <code>data(ExampleSonde)</code></p>
  
  <p>Arguably I can use <code>TeachingDemos</code> in conjunction with <code>my.symbols()</code> to create these wind barbs. I was just curious if anyone has found (or created) a way to plot wind barbs. Otherwise <code>my.symbols()</code> it is.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
