Se ha observado que los medicanes son pequeños ciclones que se desarrollan sobre el mar [Mediterráneo] y afectan principalmente a zonas marítimas, islas y zonas costeras. Pueden provocar vientos muy fuertes, temporales marítimos e incluso inundaciones, resultado de lluvias muy intensas. Se los identifica por una estructura nubosa muy característica, con forma de espiral ciclónica, casi circular, con intensa actividad convectiva y con una zona central sin nubes [...] 2, record 1, Spanish, - cicl%C3%B3n%20tropical%20mediterr%C3%A1neo

A pool of cold air can also become 'detached' at lower latitudes, i.e. away from the mid-latitude westerly zone, and drift slowly over relatively warmer seas, (e.g. the Mediterranean), and lead to intense convective development, often taking on marked cyclonic characteristics through the troposphere, and giving rise to locally severe conditions due to heavy rainfall, severe thunderstorms and squally winds. Remnants of these types of cold pool will sometimes drift polewards in summer and bring outbreaks of severe convective activity to mid-latitude regions, as these features will destabilise hot/humid air masses. 2, record 9, English, - cold%20air%20pool
