1 knt = 1.82 km

That is a cyclonic gust I'm thinking just a fault. I got 68 knots in cyclone Yasi aboard my yacht and Yasi destroyed many items in Qld.

Yeah but no but yeah but.....cause the world is round and the hours get shorter you can't use kmph at sea so it is just a base unit KM virsus a true actual nautical mile NM in minutes of latitude per hour! Haha

Agreed the scaling is incorrect.

To be a true geek... 1nm is the distance you will cover if you traverse 1 minute of longitude at the equator.

There is a great book called longditude. It's about john Harrison, the bloke who invented the first clock/watch that maintained its accuracy at sea well enough to enable sailors to measure longditude and determine their location. Well worth the read.

Cheers kopt .. scale all fixed .. here's the fixed version;
