On a wheather map how can you compare the speed and direction of winds in different locations?
How fast the winds are and were there going
What are the bands of high speed winds that blow in the upper troposphere are called?
jetstreams
What are high speed winds and high altitudes known as?
I think it is winds,speed, and altitude
Is when the speed of a storm winds increases and winds begin to swirl a tropical strom?
When the speed of a storm's winds increases and they start to swirl in a circular motion, it is known as a tropical storm. This circular motion is one of the defining characteristics of a tropical storm, which can lead to further intensification into a hurricane.
What are high speed winds used by pilots called?
High speed winds used by pilots are called jet streams. These strong, fast-moving air currents form high in the atmosphere and can have a significant impact on aircraft speed and fuel efficiency. Pilots often utilize jet streams to reduce flight time and save fuel during long-haul flights.

Are an anemometer and wind vane global winds?
No. They are not winds at all, they are devices. A wind vane indicates wind direction and an anemometer measures wind speed. They only measure winds at a single point, so they are not measuring global winds.

What are narrow bands of high-speed winds called?
Narrow bands of high-speed winds are called jet streams. These fast-flowing air currents exist high in the Earth's atmosphere, typically near the tropopause, and can greatly influence weather patterns and air travel routes.
What are narrow bands of high speed winds called?
Narrow bands of high speed winds are called jet streams. These are fast flowing air currents found in the upper atmosphere, usually at altitudes between 9 and 16 kilometers. Jet streams play a key role in shaping weather patterns and can influence the movement of storms and aircraft.
What are the bands of high speed winds that blow in the upper troposphere are called?
jetstreams
Where are a hurricane's winds the highest speed?
Just outside the "eye" of the storm in what is called the eyewall.
What is the term called for high speed winds where warm and cold air meets?
front
What are high speed winds and high altitudes known as?
I think it is winds,speed, and altitude
What is the highest speed a hurricane can be?
The minimum wind speed for a storm to be called a hurricane is74 mph for sustained winds. The highest sustained winds on record were 190 mph. The highest gust on record was to 253 mph.
What instrument is in the wood winds flute or trumpet?
flute
What are narrow belts of high speed winds in the upper troosphere and lower stratosphere are called what?
The Jet Stream
