That is exactly the same image that I've seen from Larry and Montblack. How
in the hell do you determine velocity from it?

There's a legend just below the chart. On the right side of the screen, it says
"Wind speeds in knots." On the left side, there's a bar chart. According to the
bar, anything below 60 knots is white. The darkest grey is 60 knots. The
lightest grey is 150.

So, looking at the section about 150 degrees west. At about 15N, we have a 60
knot band. Just above 15N, there's a 70 knot band. In the middle of that band is
a dotted line. Just above that is an 80 knot band, then a 90 knot band. Then we
start back down in velocity as we move north.

The highest wind I see in that area is a 100 knots. There's one section of this
just to the right of the 150W line. Some of the stuff up around Alaska may be
higher.

I have a high resolution, medium size monitor for my photo work. Perhaps yours
doesn't differentiate the grey bands well.
