Dry Slot - A zone of dry (and relatively cloud-free) air which wraps east- or northeastward into the southern and eastern parts of a synoptic scale or mesoscale low pressure system. A dry slot generally is seen best on satellite photographs.
DRY SLOT An area of dry, and usually cloud-free, air that wraps into the southern and eastern sections of a synoptic scale or mesoscale low pressure system. Best seen on a satellite picture, such as a water vapor image.
DRY SLOT- Refers to an influx of dry air (especially toward a mid-latitude cyclone)
DYNAMICS- Refers to upward forcing caused by a mechanism that forces the air to rise or sink such as thermal advection, jet streak divergence and PDVA ...
