Geopotential height and Temperature Advection at 850 hPa
9 Aug 2005/00 UTC - Meteosat 8 IR10.8; Geopotential Height 850 hPa(solid brown), temperature advection (dashed red: cold advection, solid red: warm advection).
Cold advection at the rear of the Cold Front can be seen. A strong gradient of low level warm advection is seen near the cyclone centre in the warm sector, slightly contributing to the vertical motion and deepening of the surface low.

Cold advection is increasing at the rear of the front. Warm advection still is intensive at the warm front. The gradient of the isophypsen has further intensified, especially tight is the situation over the Southern Baltic States causing an increase of the windspeed.

Cold advection is very intensive now at the rear of the Cold front; stationary maximum of Warm advection is still located at the occlusion front band, contributing to the prolonged rain at Lithuanian coast.
