Where did that wind come from near Orme

[Rhylsailer99]

Tuesday hardly any wind then all of a sudden no warning whoosh 25mph .
Is the arrow in the picture a known spot for gusts.

Great Orme will have some effect I would have thought.

Almost agree, I happened to be on Llandudno North Shore and West Shore when Mrs T and I were out on bikes on Tuesday. Both had a stiff offshore breeze in the late afternoon which I put down to the Orme heating up nicely all day. The track in the pic looks more likely to be Conwy Mountain having the same effect though
