My experience has been when it is windy on the north side, it is calm on the south side and vice versa.
I also felt it was windy on the south side a lot more than the north but much more experienced posters seem to imply the opposite.
I downloaded the Roatan Airport weather station data from:
Weather History for Roatan, Honduras | Weather Underground
and scanned for all the days with >30 km/hr mean wind speed:

Please spot check some of those days to verify the scan.
The airport is on the south side of the island so may not be really reading what is happening on the north side.
But according to those readings, most windy days have an east wind which would be felt worst by south side since the island is slanted.
Does that seem right?
