Dino Trinh. Dear Dino, Meteorologists always define the wind direction as the direction the wind is coming from. If you stand so that the wind is blowing directly into your face, the direction you are facing names the wind. That's why north winds generally bring colder weather to Chicago, while south winds imply a warmup. For general purposes, the wind direction is reported to eight compass points, (i.e. N, NE, E).
