We'll Go Right, Thanks.


In a pitch-black night, the lightning puts the blue back in the sky, and you get to see the distinctive anvil-shaped top of the thunderstorm cloud. This gives you the tip that the wind is blowing right-to-left, so the smoothest option will be to divert upwind.

We'll go to the right, even though the guy we are following looks to be going left-of-track. Our passengers will appreciate the smooth ride.
