      Partially. The wind dies down to almost nothing at night so a long night means a longer time with no wind production.

        ah. the wind is definately different near me. I sorta wonder though how constant or not they are at the elevation of the turbines. I almost always see them moving no matter the wind. I had heard they actually to much wind and they have to be turned off but I think anytime its been storming that bad I have not paid attention to them.

          Interesting. I never considered the height of them. I’ll have to dig into that.
