🔍 Key Concepts

• Swell vs. local wind waves and which can travel far ahead of a storm • How barometric pressure, clouds, and wind typically change as a hurricane gets closer • The idea that some signs of a storm can be visible or noticeable before you see bad weather nearby

💭 Think About

• Which of these choices could reasonably appear many hundreds of miles away from the center of a tropical cyclone? • Which signs (clouds, dark sky, rain, strong winds) usually show up only when the storm is already fairly close? • Think about what kind of sea state a ship might notice well before any dramatic change in sky, wind, or rain.

✅ Before You Answer

• Compare which option could occur without any local change in wind or weather yet. • Ask yourself which sign would be noticed first at sea by an observant mariner on watch. • Eliminate any choices that clearly require the storm to be already near your location (strong winds, dark clouds, heavy rain).
