Map of geopotential height on the 500 hPa pressure surface, from the six-to-ten-day forecast issued by the U.S. Climate Prediction Center on October 22, 2012, for the period October 28–November 1, 2012. The solid contours show the forecast geopotential height for that period, while the dashed contours show the anomalies (the difference between the actual forecast values and the long-term average values for the time of year), with positive anomalies in red and negative anomalies in blue.
