LB - Nicosia would probably have been better without one at all! In the summer you could have the anemometer reading just about zero, and the windsocks at either end showing approx 30 - 40 kts - only 180 degrees different (the sea breeze from both east and west coasts and a temp of +40C or more)! However, about 500ft up you could almost sit in autorotation and still climb.
