The question is based on this hypothetical weather map in the Northern Hemisphere showing isobars and the positions of a cold front and a warm front (top of map is north). Six locations are marked on the map (points A, B, C, D, E, and F). A cross-section diagram along points A, B, C, D, E, and F is shown below the map.
What will be an ideal response?
