Weather conditions that are associated with high rates of migration in the fall are the passage of cold fronts and tailwinds. |
The rise in GDP was supported by tailwinds from falling fuel prices, which put extra cash into consumers' pockets, and the export-boosting drop in the value of the euro. |
Most of the time, I accept the dispatcher's recommendation after reviewing weather and factors such as headwinds, tailwinds and areas of turbulence to be avoided. |
Because of good tailwinds my flight arrived in Newark approximately 30 minutes ahead of schedule. |
Headwinds and tailwinds can slow down or speed up travel, respectively, and pilots can adjust the height at which they fly to avoid or take advantage of winds. |
We also have benefitted by being able to ride the tailwinds that have established Brazil as a dynamic economic force. |
