This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Transitional Seasons Weather Regime, Freezing conditions are most likely just before Sunrise, Cooler, dryer upper-level westerly winds increase the potential for the development of Thunderstorms, Cold front passage may lead to Freezing conditions, Cold front passage typically involves Large differences in temperatures, Cold front passage causes Stronger, gustier surface winds, Precipitation e.g., Thunderstorms, Maritime tropical air mass contributes to the formation of Advection fog in the Gulf region, Precipitation e.g., Showers, Stronger, gustier surface winds may exceed threshhold for Small craft warnings, Cold front passage is a principle source of Precipitation, Large differences in temperatures lead to Severe weather, Continental polar air mass associated with Northerly winds, Continental polar air mass associated with Cooler temperatures, Stronger, gustier surface winds may exceed threshhold for Gale warnings, Maritime tropical air mass associated with Southerly winds and warmer temperatures, Stronger, gustier surface winds caused by stronger Pressure gradient, Wind direction shifts to out of the North and west, Transitional Seasons (Fall, Spring) Weather Regime involves the interplay between Continental polar air mass, Southerly winds and warmer temperatures precondition to Showers, Cold front passage is usually followed by Clear skies
