Upper-level divergence: 22-26 February 2001
Divergence at upper levels of the troposphere can lead to the formation or intensification of a low pressure center at the surface. The animations of the 300 mb and sea-level pressure maps below show a case of upper level divergence causing a surface low to intensify.
