The Seto Inland Sea is one of the sea areas that require attention in Japan because the islands are densely packed, the width of the shipping route, and it is a key point for ship transportation. In particular, there are many marine accidents caused by tidal current and gusts, so it is necessary to know the latest weather and sea conditions. However, the range of information that can be obtained is wide, and it is difficult to obtain local information that takes into account regional characteristics. In this study, we analyzed the wind data of Yashiro Island, where our school is located, because the aim of providing meteorological information to each region based on the collected meteorological data in the future. As a result, there were signs of land and sea breeze in the wind direction in various parts of the island. As for the wind speed, the difference in strength between day and night and the terrain became clear.
