Weird behaviour of wind (not similar as Risto's situation)

That behaviour I can find only sometimes when I get good wind conditions to do record-hunting. For example:
Bad Mitterndorf HS200
Gate 2
Maximal wind: 2.5 m/s
Minimal wind: 0.9 m/s
Average wind: 1.7 m/s
Sapporo HS134
Gate 8
Maximal wind: 2.3 m/s
Minimal wind: 0.8 m/s
Average wind: 1.55 m/s
That's pretty irritating. In training mode with changing average wind to 2.0 m/s maximal wind is 2.5 m/s, so +0.5 m/s. And we probably got then -0.75 m/s but sometimes can be 1.1 m/s, which is annoying. Similar situation is hardlier with other types of wind, for example sometimes when I get backwind 1.3 m/s from pretty low startgate (almost medium or medium), it can go to 0.1 m/s and move.
Next irritating thing is hard to find good wind conditions in Klingenthal. Too often from gate 14 (+1) I get wind similar to wind from gate 15. And we have 12 gates to use in World Cup mode, from 13 to 25, so finding great wind from gate 14 should be quite easier.
