It is 8:00 AM on Monday, your first day of work at the National Weather Service office in Chicago, Illinois. You notice a developing low-pressure system centered over Wichita, Kansas, about 1,000 kilometers (600 miles) to the southwest. The winds at 500 mb above the cyclone are blowing toward the northeast at 100 kilometers per hour (60 mph). If the storm maintains its current intensity, when do you forecast that the center of the cyclone will pass near the Chicago area? If the cyclone and the upper-level trough strengthen, do you think the low will pass to the north or the south of Chicago?
