The Northern Hemisphere 500 hPa heights (m) for 16–24 November 2010 contoured every 60 m. The location of the block is noted with an H and the location of the surface feature associated with the heavy rain event of 24 November 2010 is marked with L. The black arrows represent the 300 hPa jet maximum for 24 November 2010.
