Wind Direction vs. Wind Heading    
There is sometimes confusion between the terms
"Wind Direction" and "Wind Heading"...

"Wind Direction" means "the direction where the wind is coming from"

...whereas...

"Wind Heading" means "the direction where the wind is going to"

...for example...

In the case of a northerly wind direction, the wind is coming from the north and going to the south.

Wind direction and heading differ by 180 degrees.
