Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The clear skies that separate the head of the comma from the tail in a mid-latitude cyclone are associated with the dry slot. The dry slot is an area of dry air sinking into the center of the storm and can cause a break in precipitation and clear skies to form. Choices A and B refer to air masses that are involved in the formation of the cyclone, but they do not directly relate to the clear skies. Choice C refers to a conveyor belt that carries cold air, but it does not cause clear skies.
