a...
Heat exchange.
What causes variations in altimeter settings between weather reporting
points?

, If there is thunderstorm activity in the vicinity of an airport at which you
plan to land, which hazardous atmospheric phenomenon might be
expected on landing approach?
Wind shear turbulence.
A non frontal, narrow band of active thunderstorms that often develop
ahead of a cold front is know as a...
Squall line.
