Weather can make your time on the water wonderful or deadly. It is vital to know how to respond to fog, thunderstorms, rapid wind shifts and other dangerous weather. Rapid Wind Shifts: A sudden change in wind speed and/or direction will have a significant impact on boaters. Wind speed and direction are the primary forces creating waves. When are rapid changes in wind speed and direction most likely? Sudden changes in wind speed and direction often occur near thunderstorms and fast moving rain/snow showers. Wind shifts in direction and speed usually occur near cold fronts and warm fronts. This concludes today`s topic on wind shifts. Tomorrow will focus on inland boating. $$
