it means the wind is coming from the south west. I know this because a local broadcasting station was talking about it today.

When meteorologists say a southwest wind, that means it is coming from the southwest. This is because the wind tends to carry the humidity and temperature of the area from which it originates. So, for example, in the Central United States, a north wind, which comes from Canada and the Polar Regions generally brings cooler and drier air.

whenever they say a southwest wind, it means the wind is COMING from the southwest. Every time you see a wind direction, that is the direction the wind is coming from.
