This document provides an assignment to create a weather map and forecast for 4 areas in late summer. Students must draw two midlatitude cyclones, one over the Great Lakes occluding and one mature over Colorado. They must write forecasts for areas along the warm front, cold front, cut off low, and occlusion, and show weather station models for at least 8 cities including dew point, temperature, wind, clouds, and pressure. Students should also draw isobars around each cyclone and across the US on their map.
