This course provides an introduction to the analysis of synoptic weather
systems. Methods of synoptic analysis are discussed in lecture, and then
applied to observed data in a laboratory class. Basic dynamical concepts
are used to guide analysis. A daily review of current weather provides
real-time examples of principles derived in lecture and lab.
