Which air masses affect NC weather the most. Name their air mass symbols and where they come from?

North Carolina's weather is most affected by two primary air masses: the maritime tropical (mT) air mass, which originates from the warm, moist waters of the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean, and the continental polar (cP) air mass, which comes from the cold, dry regions of Canada. The mT air mass typically brings warm, humid conditions and precipitation, especially in summer, while the cP air mass can lead to cooler, drier weather during the winter months. Additionally, the continental tropical (cT) air mass can influence summer weather with hot, dry conditions. These air masses interact to create the state's varied weather patterns.
