So happy since tornadoes on the lake

So happy since tornadoes on the lake

Whirbelstürme on the Sea, and Wasserhosen are made, without any Seltenheit. Whoever found it, it was a serious fall, an expert.

On Monday morning a luxury yacht is off the coast of Sicily in Seenot. The ship is hit by media reports of a washer hose. The storm has left the yacht’s mast, where it slowly goes out. Was it a laundromat and who was that?

A water hose is no different than a tornado over water. The high wind speed causes the water to become trichter-shaped.

Wasserhosen are attracted by the weather from the white clouds. When you come out of the mumble cloud, you hit the wash water flash. The calm air space from the cloud blows through the warm water. While the temperature and the fusion of the wind in the washer form a rotating air flow, the air will end up in a warm air flow and a better air flow. The pressure inside the swirling tower then sees the water from the lake or sea high and swirls with speeds between 70 and 250 km / h.

In Germany, water pants are found on the North Sea, said Simona Dittrich-Knüppel, leader of the Academy of German Sailing Associations, in a conversation with t-online. “If someone has a water pants on the lake, it’s the best way to get out.” If you urgently want to use the Wirbelsturm, you should take a photo of your machine.

Wasserhosen can easily be washed and no longer used. “These high wind hazards can cause significant damage even with small impacts,” says Dittrich-Knüppel.

The greatest risk is best when the wind comes from the Schiff area – the mast is also pushed parallel to the water by the wind force. The fall of the autumn can leave the mast and the Schiff knows, what is with the luxury yacht for the great war of the autumn.

Dittrich-Knüppel, who has another Dozentin for Ship Safety and Crew Management, is the Himmel who keeps the Segel in the Blick zu behalten. The Wasserhosen wanders around after a while. If you have a small image, it is so that the Kurs no longer comes close to the Wasserhose.

Before embarking on a Segel trip, check the regulations on the route, inform yourself and find out what the route will be like. All large quantities of water for washing water segments and segments do not show Dittrich-Knüppel everything. “When the wasserhosen leave, she is usually in the dorm.”
