In the present paper an attempt has been made to utilise two different forms of complexity measures in directional change of wind. Two types of complexity measures are average mutual information and multifractal dimensions. Four sets of data have been studied. For each set, all the three measures have been calculated. From the results, a comparative study of the properties of the two measures of complexity vis-a-vis understanding the nature of complexity has been done.
