Foreflight question

[flhrci]

Was planning a flight this morning and Foreflight put a line with 3 dots on it on the chart. See attachment.

What the heck is it? It happens to be on the rain graphic but appears on no other rain areas on the chart.

Thanks,

David

Tells you the speed and direction the storm cell is moving. Farther the dots are apart, the more it moved in that time frame.

Hey, that's a pretty cool feature. Did not see it on any other weather in the area on the chart.

Thanks,

I just looked at it again and the lines have expanded and there are a few more dotted lines now that the weather is getting more active.

Cool.

The dots are at 20 minute increments, so it's an hour-long projection.
