Estimating Distances Between Cells
Figure 25-A
shows two cell formations in the 200 nm range view.The cells
are calculated to be approximately 50 nm left and right from the projected
track, or 100 nm apart. No deviation is required.
Figure 25-B
shows two cell
formations in the 50 nm range view.
Strike cells
plotted at the same
place, are 12.5 nm left and right from the projected track or 25 nm apart.
A deviation around the storms is recommended—not between.
