Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is “Cyclogenesis?”  Here is the correct answer. Cyclogenesis (Abbrev. CYCLGN) – The formation or intensification of a cyclone or low-pressure storm system. I’ll have a new weekly weather quiz question for you Monday. The first person to post the correct answer as a comment on this page will win a week of free personalized weather forecasts tailored to your needs.  Good luck.

An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (Shaded “Arch” shape with arrows) nosed into the Pacific Northwest to give us relatively dry conditions to start your workweek. An Upper Level Low Pressure Trough (Shaded “U” shape with arrows on same graphic) slides eastward bringing us the chance of  showers by Tuesday  night.   The graphics for days 3-7 show the frontal systems approaching the Pacific Northwest Thursday through Saturday.  A High Pressure Ridge returns late untie week for a return to drying.
