Abstract
Abstract The dryline, a narrow non-frontal zone of sharp moisture discontinuity, has long been known as a preferential location of thunderstorm development. Through an examination of several years of data, a conceptual model of the dryline life cycle is developed. The dryline originates along the trailing edge of a continental air mass and is coincident with an old frontal surface. As it moves, it is located on the surface projection of the western edge of the low-level inversion. The dryline is destroyed either by a new cold air outbreak or by becoming too diffuse to be easily recognizable.
