Hi team,
I was able to get to the right answer but I feel like I need more insight (definite reasons) to eliminate options in this question. my thinking process as follows:
Meaning: X ( continue to usher in a seasonably cool air mass into the region)-----will cause--> Y (bring fair and dry weather for several days)
(A) to usher in a seasonably cool air mass into the region, as a broad area of high pressure will build and (saying Y (as a broad area of high pressure will build and ) causes X (continue to usher in a seasonably cool air mass into the region)
(B) ushering in a seasonably cool air mass into the region and a broad area of high pressure will build that ("a broad area" doesn't agree with "bring" that follows)
(C) to usher in a seasonably cool air mass to the region, a broad area of high pressure building, and ( "building and bring" not parallel )
(D) ushering a seasonably cool air mass in the region, with a broad area of high pressure building and ( "building and bring" not parallel )
(E) to usher a seasonably cool air mass into the region while a broad area of high pressure builds, which will ( I think "which" modifies the entire sentence preceding it (which it shouldn't); if not then it is ambiguous but I had not options left)
Although the explanation OG and GMATclub uses redundancy ("usher in" and "into") to eliminate options A and B, I think this reason was very subtle or hard to spot.
Thank You,
Dablu

Hi Dablu,
Meaning, parallelism, redundancy, and verb agreement are the concepts tested here. Your thought process is on point. Nice work!
