Interpreting Freezing Level Chart
Asked by: Drew

Okay, this might be a dumb question: how do you interpret the areas that are not shaded in nor included within the freezing level lines? I'm thinking latitudes higher than the boundary between freezing levels and unshaded areas imply the FL is at the surface. But there is a small portion that is specifically shaded to show surface FL (why not shade everything?). Sometimes, the layer between the boundaries is not a FL at the surface but at some higher altitude, which would mean there's a sudden jump in FL. From all this, I gather I'm interpreting it wrong. Thank you.
