Also, the "outfall" of wind is predictable to a reasonably high degree over wide areas, even two days out, so there is little chance of an unplanned shock to the system.

Conversely, when grid planners know a strong wind is coming, the "balancing" plants can be more efficiently cycled.

I was referring to individual offshore installations, such as in the North Sea, the coasts of France and the Netherlands or to large onshore wind farms, the power from which is aggregated into a given tie point to the grid. It did happen recently that a large portion of the windmills in West Texas were substantially becalmed. I am sure that a forthcoming answer is possible.
