grand(n, "mn", Mean, Cov) allows to generate realizations of a 
multi-normal variable, i.e. covariance matrix describes the covariance 
between each component  of the (vector) variable.

AR processes are different stuff (random process <> random variable). 
For an AR process the non-idependance is w.r.t. to time (discrete or 
continuous)

Your wind data is a random process.

what do you mean by " autocorrelated uniform random distribution" ? Here 
your triangle is just the distribution of a sum of two uniform vraiables.
