This isotach which is shown above is illustrating an upper trough that is located on the east coast of the United States. The contour lines which are closest together are representing the stronger winds associated with the upper trough. The isotach maps show lines across the surface with connecting points that have equal wind speeds overall. The main point of interest with these maps is to show where various upper troughs are located and where high winds can be expected.
