The storm has always been an important mechanic inFortnite. In this Battle Royale, the Storm Circle closes in as the match proceeds in order to bring the remaining players closer and closer to one another and see who gets the Victory Royale.

One way to be a step ahead of the rest of the players in the match is to learn where the next Storm Circle will form. Thankfully, players can do this by securing Forecast Towers inFortnite, and this guide will show them exactly how to do it.

Forecast Towers have three stages, and since they’re connected, they change according to the Storm Circle. When the match starts, the Forecast Tower computer will have a message saying “Awaiting Forecast,” which means it’s not ready to be used yet, and there’s nothing gamers can do to interact with it.

Once there are50 seconds until the first Storm Circle starts closing, the message will change to “Acquiring Forecast”. At first, it’ll be at zero percent, and it will increase every second.It will reach 100 percent when there’s precisely one minute left until the second Storm Circle starts closing.

At this point, the forecast will be ready to be secured and three Alpha Grunts will spawn. The mini-boss is bigger than the two grunts that walk beside him, and it’s the largest opponent that gamers must take out toget the Forecast Tower Access Card.

Although gamers don’t need to take down the weaker Grunts to get the Access Card, they definitely should in order to prevent them from attacking the player.

Once gamers have defeated the mini-boss,it will drop the Forecast Tower Access Card, which they must then bring to the Forecast Tower computer to secure the forecast and always have access to the location of the next Storm Circle.
