Elevation changes in terrain

The correct answer is: Severe weather watch area

The heavy dashed line on a Radar Summary Chart represents a severe weather watch area. This line signifies regions where severe weather is likely to occur, alerting pilots to exercise caution and stay informed about potential hazards within that area. The Radar Summary Chart is a critical tool for pilots as it provides real-time information about significant weather phenomena such as thunderstorms, which may impact flight safety. By identifying and understanding these watch areas, pilots can make informed decisions regarding their flight routes and altitudes to avoid hazardous conditions.
