Ok......had to clear that up.... Like almost everyone says, wind in the face means you're looking up wind, every thing behind you is downwind.

Shenandoah River in VA/WV...runs South to North as well. Maybe the south to north thing makes for good smallie fishin

My final say on the wind is this:

If the wind is hitting you in the back - you aren't screwed....just turn around!
