brian squat do *you* NEED to recognize a thunderstorm at --- 300 nm --- out?
Well, okay.

Your trig may be correct as far as the altitude is concerned but
practically speaking, you can rarely see anything 300 nm away.
I would agree they don't tend to come up on you in 10 minutes but it
may take a lot longer than 10 minutes to get to a safe
harbor/dock/anchorage.
