Wind direction indicator in connect

Hello all, I have a question about the wind direction displayed in my activities. It seems to be consistently wrong (presuming the arrow indicates wind direction?) Almost as if it is refering to the wind in a different place. Any way of correcting this?

No, you can't. The wind direction value comes from the local weather data provider, for given locality and time. The only way I can imagine, that you could influence it, is exporting the activity as "Original", deleting it from Garmin Connect, editing the FIT file of the activity changing the location and/or the time, and then importing it back to GC. However, that would be just a lottery, because you would only see the difference after importing it back. Besides that, you would have it with wrong location or time data. In other words, it would be useless anyway.

Click the weather bubble to see the weather station used. For me it usually is the closest airport.
