Question 1075Navigation General

The correct answer is C) Unusually good weather with above average pressures followed by a slow fall of 4 millibars in six hours. This is the correct answer because a rapid drop in barometric pressure, typically around 4 millibars over a 6-hour period, is a reliable indicator of an approaching hurricane within the next 24-36 hours. The unusually good weather with above average pressures prior to the rapid pressure drop is also a characteristic pattern associated with the approach of a hurricane. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the typical weather patterns and pressure changes associated with the imminent arrival of a hurricane.
