About

Marine's ability to see the enemy, terrain, and troops surrounding is greatly affected by the weather encountered. Having access to weather information can help Marines be prepared; therefore, whether traveling or in the patrol base, Marines should constantly evaluate the following: What is the weather currently? What was the weather recently and when did it change last? When is the next forecasted change coming? Winds Warmed air, combined with the spinning (rotation) of the earth, produces winds that spread heat and moisture more evenly around the world. Wind is important because the sun heats the equator much more than the poles and, without winds to help restore the balance, much of the earth would be uninhabitable. Therefore, much of the world's weather depends on a system of winds that circulate in a set direction, thereby, establishing a pattern.
