•  This is the forward half of the dangerous semi circle
•  The path of the TRS is likely to turn in this direction once attaining the latitude of recurvature and thus
placing the vessel forward of the trough line. 19
•  The winds are strongest in this quadrant because of the steep pressure gradient due to the closing up of the
isobars just prior to recurvature on the polar side
•  The direction of he wind is so as to move the vessel towards the storm centre and closer to more violent
weather.
