SYNOPSIS: A more June like weather pattern is developing, but low pressure to the SW of us will bring gusty onshore winds this week. We will see some needed rain with showers and some storms most ...

And that pressure gradient leads to strong winds. ... This flow pattern blows warm air northward toward the poles east of lows and cool air southward toward the equator west of lows.

And that pressure gradient leads to strong winds. ... This flow pattern blows warm air northward toward the poles east of lows and cool air southward toward the equator west of lows.

Offshore gradients weaken quite a bit Saturday but there's still some moderate northerly flow aloft that will generate some locally gusty winds in areas that are susceptible to winds from that ...

The weather pattern is typically calm when we're under high pressure. In this case, we're on the outer edge and on the receiving end of a wind flow coming from the northeast. Wind flows from high ...

This temperature gradient becomes less pronounced as Arctic temperatures increase at a faster rate than the more southerly latitudes, causing the wind patterns at high altitudes to change, notably ...

Wind speed is directly proportional to the pressure gradient. Plus, Tardy explained, the wind flow is stronger due to the "funnel effect" of the San Gorgonio Pass.
