Hodograph


A polar coordinate graph which shows the vertical wind profile of the lowest 7,000 meters of the atmosphere. These plots are used to determine the advection patterns aloft, whether a thunderstorm will rotate, and the type of thunderstorms that you will likely see that day. On the graph, only the tip of wind vectors are plotted. The tips are denoted [..]

Hodograph


A plot representing the vertical distribution of horizontal winds, using polar coordinates. A hodograph is obtained by plotting the end points of the wind vectors at various altitudes, and connecting these points in order of increasing height. Interpretation of a hodograph can help in forecasting the subsequent evolution of thunderstorms (e.g., squ [..]
