-The standard is for wind directions to be reported FROM the direction it is blowing, thus 270 is blowing from the west.......

When it says in an AWOS "27013KT"... does it mean the wind is blowing 13 knots from the west? Or 13 knots to the west?

The standard is for wind directions to be reported FROM the direction it is blowing, thus 270 is blowing from the west.
