- Shear in velocity or direction is important
- Consider “shear” of density d/t humidity difference...
- Shear and velocity and instability tend to come together ahead of and behind cold fronts

- Especially near the western edge of the “disc” of clouds
(developing and enlarging breaks between lines)
- Do avoid the “downwind” side of “streets”...
