Re: tropical discussion

Sorry guys - this northern system is not tropical in origin - not even subtropical. It is a north Atlantic gale, complete with warm front, cold front and occluded front - with a wave on the cold front. Satellite imagery easily depicts the entire frontal system associated with this gale.
Cheers,
