The Siberian High (also Siberian
Anticyclone) is a massive collection of cold or very cold dry air that
accumulates on the northeastern part of Eurasian terrain.
Usually, it is centred around Lake Baikal. The Siberian High is the
strongest semipermanent high in the northern hemisphere and is responsible for
both the lowest temperature in the Northern Hemisphere. Siberian High affects
the weather patterns in most parts of the Northern Hemisphere: its influence
extends as far west as the Italy and as far southeast as Malaysia, where
it is a critical component of the northeast monsoon. Occasionally a strong
Siberian High can bring unusually cold weather into the tropics as far
southeast as the Philippines. It may block or reduce the size of low-pressure
cells or cyclones
and generate dry weather across much of the Asian landscape including India
with the exception of regions such as Hokuriku
and the Caspian
Sea coast of Iran
that receive orographic rainfall from the winds it generates.
[1] The easterly from SH is propagating equator ward towards south.
[2] Tropical Easterly produce wave pattern and clouds form in crust.
[3] Due to southward propagation of wave pattern the clouding is shifted to south relatively.
[4] Already the cold is felt in Eastern coast. that is cold wind advection from SH.
