mid-latitudes

Both these fluctuations have two phases and they are predicated by the differences in the pressure between the polar vortex and the pressures farther south in the mid-latitudes.

When the two indexes are positive and the pressures at high latitudes are lower than those at mid-latitudes, the increased pressure differential between the polar region and the mid-latitudes leads to an increase in the strength of the low level winds that blow from west to east in the mid-latitudes.

In the atmosphere section of the lengthy report, the authors write: There is evidence that the effect of higher air temperatures in the lower Arctic atmosphere in fall is contributing to changes in the atmospheric circulation in both the Arctic and northern mid-latitudes.

“Reanalysis of the Viking results suggests perchlorate and organics at mid-latitudes on Mars.”

The assessment also suggests that higher air temperatures in the Arctic atmosphere in the fall is contributing to changes in the atmospheric circulation in both the Arctic and northern mid-latitudes, affecting weather well beyond the polar region.

Arctic is warming, NOAA report says Juliet Eilperin 2010

But a new "Arctic Report Card" released last week by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and prepared by an international team of researchers contains curious insights into how Arctic climate change, which may at first seem disconnected from events here at home, may be influencing weather patterns in the northern mid-latitudes.

Possible impacts of sea ice loss on atmospheric circulation in the northern mid-latitudes.

And the ice never went down/up beyond the mid-latitudes.

Tropical cyclones, and in particular hurricanes, are markedly unlike the thunderstorm complexes we experience in the mid-latitudes.

Because it contains some characteristics more typical of storms in the mid-latitudes, it is technically a "subtropical" weather system.
