Managing Storm Tracks
5. Release the mouse to display the squall projection, as shown in the following example. If the
projection is smaller than your default criteria for posting, you will see nothing, but the
parameters will display in the track area box. If you choose a closer view and the storm
projection is within it, the projection will be posted.
4.2.4 Deleting Storm Tracks
To remove the currently selected storm track, select Storm > Delete. To remove all existing
storm tracks, select Storm > Delete All.
4.3 Editing Storm Tracks
Once you create a storm track, you can edit the storm track and the places that appear
in the storm marquee box. You can do this with the Storm Track panel as described
below, or with the Storm Track Places panel (described in section 4.4).
Modifying Storm Tracks
Select the Storms option in the upper part of the panel to display the Storm Track
panel.
๎ Storm Name identifies the current storm track (in this example, it is Storm 1).
Select a storm from the pull-down list. You can key in another storm name (for
example, Athens Storm 1 or Possible Tornado). In either case, click Update at
the bottom of the window. You should retain the number identification in the
heading and on the storm projection itself in case you post more than one
projection.
๎ Type identifies the type of the current storm projection.
