Train

A train track is a technical term in meteorology that describes the calculated path of a higher classified storm ( hurricane or typhoon ).

Predictions of the train tracks

The forecast of the train tracks is made by weather balloons , satellite images and (especially in the United States ) by so-called storm chasers , which observe the path of the storms. These pass on the data via the Internet or network-dependent intranet , with which the weather services and weather warning services are networked with one another. These pass the information on to the mass media .

Effects of the train tracks

The forecasts, supported by observations made by the population via the local weather warning services, are used for extreme weather conditions and sometimes necessary evacuations of the affected areas.

Also, the air traffic is to the identified areas bypassed . This has to do with the fact that the pressure, especially in the so-called eye on the wings , would become too great and this could lead to material fatigue. A pilot is also not allowed to fly through certain cloud formations, but has to look for a suitable gap. If flying through cannot be avoided, he must deploy the buoyancy aid (such as the Fowler flap and spoiler ) in the correct number of degrees.
