Flag Windsock



Flag Windsock
How do you hang a windsock?

I need to hang a windsock to keep track of the direction the wind blows on my property (I’m going to be building a horse barn) and I’m not sure how to hang it. Does it need to be up high, like on a flag pole? Or are there other ways to hang it? Thank you so much!

It depends on the length of the sock. A 10 foot sock needs to be a minimum of 10 ft.off the ground. Actually a 18” by 5 foot sock is all you need. You can mount it on a 5 or 6 foot pole but it must be away from the barn,out buildings trees,etc. to get a good reading. Barn top would be ok too. With the sock ”wired” to a sock frame you can watch the illuminated sock at night
.Federal windsock guidelines say that a fully extended windsock indicates winds of 24 mph or greater. If the windsock is at a 45-degree angle, winds are at 12 mph.
