A stationary cold front over the western Atlantic led to the formation of a frontal wave in early July.

A frontal wave developed the next day, steadily developing due to thermal instability.

The depression turned to the northeast due to an approaching upper-level trough, and it transitioned into an frontal wave on October 10.

Sensors indicate that this system was swept by the frontal wave of a gigantic nova some three thousand years ago.

"Scanners indicate that this system took the brunt of a frontal wave which issued from a nova occurring here."

By September 8, a weak frontal wave began developing along the cold front.

Developing as a weak frontal wave on January 8, 1993, the system moved rapidly northeast, developing at a moderate pace.

The remnant low of Frances persisted another day, becoming a frontal wave over Iowa.

An upper level disturbance moved over the area on December 9, and produced widespread convection along the frontal wave.

Late that day, it became a frontal wave before moving through Japan into the Sea of Japan.
