General Navigation USCG Question #1089 (Set 34)

Which kind of conditions would you observe as the eye of a storm passes over your vessel's position?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option C — Huge waves approaching from all directions, clearing skies, light winds, and an extremely low barometer

Passage of a hurricane's eye brings a temporary lull in wind and rain, clearing skies, and an extremely low barometer, accompanied by massive, confused cross-seas generated by changing storm track winds, presenting extreme navigational danger as the eyewall approaches.
