I was actually listening to Tower when that landing took place. It was 230 give or take a few degrees all the time. The runway was 23R. So no xwind. Extremely turbulent, though!

Right now it's nominally 25 to 30, though there have been gusts up to 40kts. But while the runway is 23R, the wind direction is between 170 and 130. Plenty of go-arounds!
