Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

If Continental Polar weather systems head south and interact with Maritime Thermal air currents heading north, storms can form. Spring is when hot, dry air masses develop over arid regions of the South and northwestern America. Tropical air currents on the mainland occupy a smaller space than most other air currents.
