Hi Tom,

The problem was that the bars have width 22.5, so setting the limits
to c(0, 360) chopped off the last bar.  To get around that, you needed
to add half a bar width (11.25) to the start and end limits, and then
rotate the polar coordinate system so that 0 lines up again.

ggplot(wind.data, aes(x = degree, y = time, fill = wind)) +
 geom_bar(stat = "identity", aes(width = 22.5)) +
 scale_x_continuous(limits = c(0 + 11.25, 360 + 11.25), breaks = c(90,
180, 270, 360)) +
 coord_polar(start = 11.25 / 180 * pi) +
 scale_fill_brewer(pal = "Blues")

Or now I've correctly identified the problem, we don't need to
manually set the limits:

ggplot(wind.data, aes(x = degree, y = time, fill = wind)) +
 geom_bar(stat = "identity", aes(width = 22.5)) +
 scale_x_continuous(breaks = c(90, 180, 270, 360)) +
 coord_polar(start = 11.25 / 180 * pi) +
 scale_fill_brewer(pal = "Blues")
