Lead (D − 1) and lagged (D = 0, D + 1, D + 2) composite 850-hPa moisture fluxes (vectors) and anomaly of the moisture fluxes (shaded, against an October climatology) (g kg−1 m s−1) for each of the (a)–(d) RWB, (e)–(h) TR, and (i)–(l) CF event sets. Black contours plot 850-hPa geopotential height contours at 10-m intervals from 1520 to 1580 m. Moisture flux vectors are plotted where the u or υ component of the moisture flux anomaly is significantly different from the October climatology at the 0.05 level.
