Upper Winds

I've been looking over the data from the planes...NOAA and AFRES.
Recon has flown the 25.0 Lat line to a point south of Biloxi,MS.
The wind direction never got past 113degrees. Or just south of due east.
25.0N/ 85.0W wind 041deg,NE at 15kts
25.0N/ 86.0W wind 077deg,ENE at 19kts
25.0N/ 87.0W wind 079deg, ENE at 17kts
25.0N/ 87.3W wind 092deg,ESE at 021kts
25.0N/ 88.4W wind 113deg,ESE at 018kts

I'll have to convert the flight level to altitude in feet.
9175 meters, 30094feet-pressure altitude.
