About This Book
The author links rotating gales to broader atmospheric waves and lays out the characteristic barometric and wind patterns associated with different positions relative to a storm's center. Practical guidance covers instruments and observation schedules, how to record veering of wind, identification of storm approach, regional tendencies and seasons, and methods to avoid passing through the storm's center. Tables and diagrams illustrate expected wind shifts and pressure changes, and simple charting aids are provided to help mariners visualize storm rotation and plan safer navigation.
