Hi Erin,

I'm not very familiar with the wind rose code, and it doesn't appear
to be documented, but I don't think you can easily change the font
size of the text in the plot without editing the wind rose code
itself.

I'm not sure which text you are talking about, but most of the wind
rose text is being added with calls to "gsn_add_text". If you are
willing, you can make a personal copy of
$NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/csm/wind_rose.ncl and modify it
yourself. Look for the calls to "gsn_add_text", and try to figure out
which one is drawing the text that you want to increase the size for.

Then, change the value for "txRes_at_txFontHeightF" to the value you
want, or else apply a scale factor to it.

I'm cc-ing the author of this code in case he has other suggestions.
