Some careful use of is.na() may help.
Either by using it to remove NA values or as part of the if statement.
 
Or:
 
my.wdir <- na.omit(dat$wdir)
for(i in 1:length(my.wdir)) {
 
#etc

        Hello,
        
        I am having trouble dealing with NA values in if statements such as:
        i<-1
        for(i in 1:length(dat$wdir)){
        if (dat$wspd[i]==0){
        dat$wdir[i]<-0
        }
        }
        
        I get the following error due to the presence of NS values in the data:
        Error in if (dat$wspd[i] == 0) { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed
        
        Sorry if this is an old question but I was unable to resolve this from 
the
        info on na.action etc. or old archives.
        
        Thank you for any suggestions,
        
        Vera Lindsay
