introduce concept of wind assisted travel #35

Description

@IanMayo

We should introduce some more temporal weather related aspects.

Instead of the weather being a band moving across the region, that increases the risk of cold, let's do the following:

  • it's a cyclone passing through, not a linear barrier of wind
  • the cyclone is spinning anticlockwise
  • when travelling into the wind there is a drop in speed, and general increase in all risks, particularly cold
  • when travelling with the wind behind there is an increase in speed and general decrease in all risks, except for a slight increase in cold risk
  • with a 90 deg cross wind there is no impact
  • between cross-wind and head/tail wind, exponentially build up to the peak risk impact
  • so when this entity is considering "risk at(location, time)", it must determine the direction of the wind at that location at that time, and calculate the risk accordingly.
