polar front

He wanted rain, or a brisk polar front to blow the cobwebs out of his brains.

In the winter the infiltration of cold air from the polar front is relatively common, and frosts can occur.

They surround the polar highs and lie in the wake of the polar front.

In the winter, the tropical anticyclones move south, allowing cold polar fronts to penetrate the region.

This cold period sees an expansion of the polar front, with ice floating further south across the North Atlantic ocean.

The second is a "comma-shaped" signature that is found more frequently with systems closer to the polar front.

The polar front arises as a result of cold polar air meeting warm tropical air.

These climates are dominated all year round by the polar front, leading to changeable, often overcast weather.

Upward currents of air along the polar fronts diverge at high tropospheric altitudes.

On November 1 Clara turned to the north and transitioned into an extra-tropical low after encountering a polar front.

At this point, the system interacted with a wave extending from a polar front near Chicago, Illinois and subsequently re-intensified.

Polar front in meteorology.

Antarctic Polar Front may refer to:

Between the Atlantic and Polar waters, a front called the Polar Front is formed.

During winter, heavy swells are generated in the mid-latitudes, when the North and South polar fronts shift toward the Equator.

Meteorological events include rain, snow, hail, blizzards, polar fronts, tornadoes, thunderstorms, and high-velocity Downburst.

Still further south lies the Polar front, which is marked by a transition to very cold, relatively fresh, Antarctic Surface Water at the surface.

In meteorology, the polar front is the boundary between the polar cell and the Ferrel cell in each hemisphere.

The coldest month is usually quite mild, although frosts are not uncommon, and winter precipitation is derived primarily from frontal cyclones along the polar front.

A polar front and an upper trough over the Yucatán Peninsula and eventually spawned a tropical depression by June 14.

Cycolic cold-core eddies are frequently formed at the polar front by the Gulf Stream and Labrador Current.

Polar Front: Between the polar easterlies and the westerlies is the polar front.

These lows produce a shorter fetch than polar fronts, however they can still generate heavy swells, since their slower movement increases the duration of a particular wind direction.

Divergence occurs near surface level resulting in a return of the circulating air to the polar fronts where rising air currents can create extensive cloud cover and precipitation.

The polar front supported multiple cold fronts moving southeastward through the Atlantic toward mainland Europe, as well as an eastward-moving warm front approaching Great Britain.
