On each pattern, draw a dozen or so streamlines to show how the wind would blow if the earth did not rotate. Assume that these isobar patterns are in the Northern Hemisphere. Explain the reasoning behind your streamlines. Would your answer be different if these pressure patterns were in the Southern Hemisphere? Again, offer a brief explanation.
