  4. When I originally picked my 48-hour forecast, the midlatitude cyclone was in South Carolina. 48 hours later, the midlatitude cyclone was starting to move into the Atlantic Ocean. According to the satellite image dated October 18th, there showed a great amount of gray shadow all across the Atlantic and South Carolina. The Doppler radar dated October 18th, showed a positive shift in South Carolina region closer to the Atlantic Ocean. Regarding ridges and troughs, there is a small trough that barely passes through South Dakota on the top of the state. There is a ridge that flows through the top and bottom of the state. Based on all these observations, a midlatitude cyclone has occurred in the South Carolina area.

  9. Reflection • . It is really interesting that all these tools are available for anyone to use. I was fascinated on looking at the different tools used to find the midlatitude cyclone. I never knew that this information is available for anyone to use. As a student I learn best through visual and hands on. It really made me understand much better because I was able to explore and put the pieces together.
