🔍 Key Concepts

• Northern Hemisphere wind circulation patterns • Relationship between high and low pressure systems and wind direction • Basic differences between pressure systems and fronts (warm vs cold fronts)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: around a low-pressure center in the Northern Hemisphere, do winds circulate clockwise or counterclockwise? • Think about whether a 'high' or a 'low' refers to pressure over an area, or to the boundary between two different air masses. • Decide if a 'front' (warm or cold) describes a circular circulation pattern, or something more like a moving boundary line on a weather chart.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which system in the Northern Hemisphere has counterclockwise surface wind flow. • Confirm that high and low describe pressure centers, while warm front and cold front describe boundary zones between air masses. • Make sure the correct choice matches BOTH: (1) counterclockwise circulation and (2) being surrounded by higher pressure.
