Abstract: A method and system for estimating wind speeds around transmission lines. The method comprises constructing statistical correlations between measured conductor blowout and wind speeds for spans of the transmission lines, generating local wind speed scaling coefficients, and using the wind speed scaling coefficients to estimate wind speed for spans from forecasted wind speeds. This is useful for determining the effective cooling wind speed for a conductor span for the purposes of computing a dynamic line rating.
