Wouldn't it be cool if you had a bottle of baby powder built into a wind meter. You would then press the button, angle the wind head (moveable) in that direction and on the display it would tell you what % of the full value wind that is.
New idea for a wind meter

How about double sided tape with a piece of wet napkin on it,
You can wet your finger and hold it in the air

Never forget that since wind (at all times) is variable, doping the wind is as much an art as it is a science. Stop thinking about gadgets, go outside and shoot. Shoot a couple hours in advance of a storm, in a storm, on blue bird days, at UKD spots that are mountainous, and that are flat. In short, while you can flatten the learning curve; there is no substitute for experience.
I get that it doesn't need to be exact, because that's a measurement at one place. However I like to take that one measurement as accurately as possible to gauge the rest of the wind better. And I'm carting a wind meter around anyways, I would buy a new one if it did this, along with temp and pressure.
