A secondary lows occasionally develop at the triple point of a mid-latitude cyclone
B mid-latitude cyclones are most intense in the advanced occlusion stage of development
C a series of mid-latitude cyclones exist along the polar front at any given time
D In the US, mid-latitude cyclones often form over the Gulf of Mexico

Answer:

D In the US, mid-latitude cyclones often form over the Gulf of Mexico

Explanation:

  • From the polar front theory, it can be asserted that in the mid-latitude there exist a boundary of cold dry air CP to the north and warm moist air to the south. The mid-latitude cyclone that develops has a cyclic nature and develops in a clockwise direction in the northern hemisphere.
  • Thus they have a difference between the hurricane and mid-latitude cyclone, the typical diameter of the mid-latitude trip[ocala cyclone is 1500-5000 km. Thus there is an intensity of cyclone at the occlusion stage as they are rich in moisture and can bring heavy snowfall.
  • But they don't cross the North American border as they weaken when going southwards.
