Isotachs maps

http://www.spc.noaa.gov/publications/thompson/3may99/waf.htm

Isotachs maps show lines on a surface that are connecting to points with equal amounts of wind speeds. This map is showing the wind patterns during a thunderstorm breakout. It does a good job of showing how the wind speeds are changing over the central and western part of the united states.
