5-9. What  weather  pattern  may  develop when a tropical cyclone moves northward into an area with a strong  temperature  gradient? 1. The  tropical  cyclone  center will maintain its circulation, and the area of gale force winds  will  decrease 2. The  tropical  cyclone  center will  lose  its  circulation,  and the area of gale force winds will  increase 3. The  tropical  cyclone  center will  lose  its  circulation,  and the area of gale force winds will  decrease 4. The  tropical  cyclone  center will maintain its circulation, and the area of gale force winds  will  increase 5-10.
