How to tell which pattern at an airport?

At ATL, there's a GREAT view of departures and arrivals from the north and south parking desk, but only if planes are arriving from the west and taking off to the east. Is there any way, without actually listening to the radio, to find out which approach/departure they're using at any particular time, especially if there's a north or south crosswind and it's hard to predict?
