I know I am right - a 40 year career. Just setting the record straight, sorry if it ruffled your feathers. Certain flow patterns result in very large pressure falls - it actually happens fairly often over water. Don't get all wrapped up with the terminology. It is nature's way of moving cold air south and warm air north.

Early spring is the time for the most tornados in the very place they are happening, but it usually follows a very warm day.

I just never heard it before last year. But a huge drop in pressure triggers it.

I remember when you weren't so quick to correct me.
