Isotach


Isotachs are on a specific type of contour map that shows wind speed.through contour lines. As such, the contours upon the isotach map go through points of equal wind speeds. In this map of the Southeastern US, we see the two epicenters, both of which are around the southeastern part of each state. In both areas, windspeed is 40 mph or more.
