There are two inherent “transition zones” each 100 feet
thick between the top/mid layers and the mid/bottom
layers respectively. These transition zones comprise the
last 50 feet of each layer (the lowest part of the higher
layer and the highest part of the lower layer). De pend ing
on the parameters set in each of the wind layers you may
experience some turbulence and changing conditions
when transitioning through these shear zones.

winds it is pos si ble to have the winds change in a clock wise
or counter clock wise man ner. The CW (clock wise) but ton
is a tog
