Operation decision using the latest weather forecasting technology -II -Consideration by AMeDAS wind condition analysis -

In this study, the authors analyzed AMeDAS wind data from five Japan Meteorological Agency’s stations and discussed the wind speed and gust factor for each wind direction. The gust factor was larger on land than on the sea, and the correlation between wind speed and gust factor tended to be higher on the sea. As a result of the investigation, there was a case with a maximum instantaneous wind speed of 16m/s and a gust factor of 2.86. This gust was conspicuously caused by the passage of a front with strong rainfall intensity. At Kobe and Kansai International Airport, it was found that the winds became stronger when the wind direction changed from SSE to SSW, and marine accidents had occurred due to this phenomenon. These findings can be used to make operational decisions and help prevent maritime accidents.
