Vertically Stacked System

  "id": "MLC-T-MET-002978",
  "term": "Vertically Stacked System",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "A low-pressure system, usually a closed low or cutoff low, which is not tilted with height, i.e., located similarly at all levels of the atmosphere. Such systems typically are weakening and are slow-moving, and are less likely to produce severe weather than tilted systems. However, cold pools aloft associated with vertically-stacked systems may enhance instability enough to produce severe weather.",
