Abstract: The mesoscale air temperature and dew point fields in a synoptic situation where air with a temperature at least 25°C colder than lake water temperature passed over the western Great Lakes is investigated. The airflow ...

Abstract: During an experiment in mesoscale weather forecasting in the Michigan area, consensus improved over NWS guidance in maximum/minimum temperature and probability of precipitation forecasts out to 24 hours. Forecasts were ...

Abstract: Root-mean-square errors of the 24 h operational, objective, maximum-minimum temperature forecasts derived from primitive equation model predictions and model output statistics are evaluated in terms of synoptic-scale and ...

Abstract: Twenty-five meteorological stations are in operation inland from two nuclear power plants located on the Lake Michigan shoreline in southwestern lower Michigan. Their purpose is to provide data to enable meteorological ...

Abstract: Objective predictions of first permanent ice formation and freeze-up on the Great Lakes were made by use of cumulative freezing degree-day totals, by the Lisitzin-Rodhe-Bilello equation, by use of departures from normal ...
