Present Movement The best estimate of the movement of the center of a tropical cyclone at a given time and given position. This estimate does not reflect the short-period, small scale oscillations of the cyclone center.
This image shows the TVS in the velocity field from the same Tennessee and Kentucky storms. Negative values (blue-green) denote movement toward the radar and positive values (yellow-red) represent movement away from the radar.
