850 hPa Standardized Anomalies

Caption:
+(upper left) 850 hPa geopotential height (solid contours every 3 dam) and anomaly (shaded in sigma).
+(upper right) 850 hPa temperature (dashed contours every 3 K) and anomaly (shaded in sigma).
+(lower left) 850 hPa wind (arrows in m/s) and U-component anomaly (shaded in sigma).
+(lower right) 850 hPa wind (arrows in m/s) and V-component anomaly (shaded in sigma).
+Image was generated from 1.0x1.0^o NCEP-GFS data. Anomalies were computed using a 21-day running mean (1979-2009) from the NCEP-NCAR reanalysis.
