This was particularly true at midlatitudes from the eastern Pacific across North America to Asia as the wave train this month was out of phase with the August pattern. Troughs replaced ridges and ridges replaced troughs. Changes in the height anomaly from August to September (fig. 3) shorn this wave reversal rather well, especially when compared with the height anomaly for August (Green 1971). In the Pacific, a mean Lorn was established over the Bering Sea as blocking in Siberia continued to weaken (fig. 1). Development of this Low mas enhanced by remnants of typhoon Wendy which entered the region about the middle of the month. Anomalous heights increased by more than 100 m over the eastern Pacific (fig. 3) as a
