Question 422 - Meteorology - ATPL - Airline Transport Pilot Licence

During July and August it lies well north of the equator over Africa and Asia, with a larger seasonal north–south migration over land than over the oceans.

Over West Africa, its annual migration is confined to the belt between 10°N and 30°N.

Over the Atlantic Ocean, it generally migrates as far north and south as it does over the neighbouring continents.

Its most northerly position over tropical Africa typically occurs in January and February.
