Primeiro desculpe se eu quebrar alguma regra de postagem aqui, pôster da primeira vez e tudo mais.
Queria usar a resposta acima junto com a adição de timescaledb ao postgres para minha estação meteorológica diy, mas acontece que a função não é paralela segura. Também afik o uso de atan não produz a resposta correta.
Portanto, esta é a minha versão modificada que acho que deve ser paralela segura e usa atan2.

Teste a partir de uma amostra muito pequena:
psql -d weather -c "select * from windavgtest;"
time | direction | speed
