Answer: Dry conveyor Belt

Explanation: drying of the mid and upper troposphere is indicative of air sinking from great altitudes where water vapor is scarce. In the case of a maturing low-pressure system, dry air near the tropopause sinks west of the low's center. This phenomenon known as a dry conveyor belt.
