Whole system showing rotation around developing inflow notch Possible developing cyclonic book-end vortex circulation along northern edge of bow Base velocity product clearly shows front to rear inflow being wrapped around cyclonic bookend vortex member As front to rear inflow becomes wrapped up in the system, rear inflow jet is enhanced which leads to low-level spin-up along leading edge of bowing segment
