Great insight!  I know there has to be more happening… that ageostrophic turning likely makes a more pronounced sinking motion just beyond it too, no?  I can imagine that happening in low level lift while a deeper level wave forms over top maybe.  I always try to envision the air flow fluidly to explain maxes and mins and why they end up where they do.  A side effect of living in orographic land.

I should be specific about my vectors. Friction acts opposite to the real wind. The reduced speed reduces coriolis so the pgf (pressure gradient force) becomes dominant and the flow turns more ageostrophic over land. It’s basically an ekman spiral.
