A case study of a California cold low moving into southern B.C. / by Stephen Nikleva.: En57-56/648-1967E-PDF
"A synoptic study is carried out for the period May 3-7, 1966. A split flow over the Eastern Pacific characterizes the 500-mb pattern with a cold low off the California coast which is gradually forced northeastward into southwestern British Columbia in response to upstream changes. The surface developments accompanying this evolution are studied and it is found that the motion of the surface thermal trough is identifiable with the initial motion of the 500-mb short wave ridge in the southern stream. The 500-mb cold low is accompanied by a cold front that overtakes the thermal trough and both then continue eastward in phase with the upper low. The main weather features are related to the synoptic development"--Abstract.
