THE WEATHER AND CIRCULATION OF OCTOBER 1966 Cool Weather With Strong Polar Blocking
Strong blocking in very high latitudes partially controlled the mid-tropospheric circulation and surface weather over most of the United States and Canada during October 1966. Some measure of the strength of the blocking may be seen in the polar index as determined from the flow in the western porti...
