If you plan to have kids there, the test might be worth it for your peace of mind. If there are no kids I would not bother.

- jimmyswimmy 5y agoAlso, a quick way to estimate local prevailing winds near an airport is to look at the runway direction. Planes like to land into head winds so if there's only a single runway, those winds are mostly in one direction down the runway.
