Question 1099Navigation General

The correct answer is B) 80 to 100 miles. The rate of fall of the barometer, which is 0.08 - 0.12 inches per hour, indicates that the storm center is approximately 80 to 100 miles away. This is because a rapid fall in barometric pressure is typically associated with a storm system moving closer, and the rate of fall can be used to estimate the distance to the storm center. The other options are incorrect because a rate of fall between 0.08 and 0.12 inches per hour is indicative of a storm center being 80 to 100 miles away, rather than 50 to 80 miles (A), 100 to 150 miles (C), or 150 to 250 miles (D).
