Activity 1: Track Me Now Objective: Track the path taken by a tropical cvclone given its coordinates. Directions: Use the latitude and longitude in the table below to track the location of typhoon Yolanda (International name: Haiuan). Latitudes are imaginary lines parallel to equator (point of distance from left to right). Longitudes are imaginary lines from North pole to South Pole (point of distance from the top to the bottom). Note: The first track is done for you as example. Materials Needed: map, pencil, tracking data Location of Eye of Tropical Cyclone Category Date Time Longitude 134.4 Latitude Super Typhoon Super Typhoon Super Typhoon Super Typhoon Super Typhoon Super Typhoon Super Typhoon Super Typhoon Typhoon Typhoon Nov/06/2013 6 pm 8.2 132.8 12 midnight 8.6 Nov/07/2013 Nov/07/2013 Nov/07/2013 9.3 131.1 6 am 12 noon 10.2 129.1 10.6 127.0 Nov/07/2013 Nov/08/2013 Nov/08/2013 6 pm 12 midnight 6 am 11.0 124.8 11.4 122.6 11.8 120.6 12 noon Nov/08/2013 Nov/08/2013 12.4 118.1 6 pm 12 midnight 116.2 12.3 Nov/09/2013
