We had something like that at K-Bay. The range was in the corner of an old crater. The crater was breached on the ocean side which allowed the trades to blow from right to left. Problem is that the gusts would start off from the right, then hit the crater wall and redirect so that shortly after they came from the left. I was warned of the phenomenon by some Marine friends, but didn't believe it until I experienced it. It was pretty predictable.

I spent a lot of time on the range in K-Bay. I was my Squadrons PMI for three years there.
