tom symonds, bbc news, calais.ow people navigate such dangerous waters. well, the primary factor is the weather. they all have, the migrants who are hoping to cross the channel, apps on their phones where they can check what the winds doing, what the waves are doing. they know as much about the weather as a sailor might do navigating these waters, and that's because if the waves here are really more than a metre, then those inflatable dinghies that are often used to cross the channel really are impossible to get across on. and so that's one of the key considerations. and what happens is, as we have had, if you get 2—3 weeks of very bad weather where the waves are too high, the wind is too high, and then a period of calmer whether, as it is today, waves of less than a metre, then a big rush of people try to cross the channel. there are other factors, too. people—traffickers control all of this. people in the camps wait to be told by the people they have probably paid thousands of euros for a passage across to the uk
