Hitting ESC will abort a plot. The name of the storm will appear on the screen, followed by the date and time. The color of the plot changes with the storm's wind speed. The SlowDown Factor gives you a way to control this speed. Slower computers will need a lower number.
Decimal values are acceptable.
The Slowdown factor does not affect the maps, which draw as fast as your computer will load them. When running a Storm List, this field gives you the option to pause between the storms in a list. Any keystroke will start the next storm plot. A small red circle will appear on all maps at that location. The default location is the former Homestead Air Force Base.
