Mirage question

[bellavite1]

I am trying to better myself at wind estimation.
So here's my question:
Target at 500 yds.
Let's say I have conflicting wind vectors a different distances (4 o'clock at 100, 1 o'clock at 300, 10 o'clock at 500.
What I need to adjust for is the compounded effect of all vectors.
So now I look at the mirage at 500.
Is that mirage going to show me the compounded effect and therefore I will adjust for it or does the 500 yds mirage only shows me wind at 500 yds?
I hope the question makes sense...
