Extratropical Cyclones

Extratropical Cyclone is a synoptic-scale atmospheric circulation system characterized by a low-pressure center and associated cold and warm fronts, forming in mid-latitudes due to baroclinic instability and distinguished from tropical cyclones by its dependence on temperature gradients rather than latent heat release.
