RISA Study of the Severity of the Midwestern Winters of 1977 and 1978 Using Heating Degree Days Determined from Both Measured and Wind Chill Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The winters of 1976?77 and 1977?78 were severe by virtually any standard. In this study, heating degree day (NDD) accumulations for these two winters as well as for the 1941?70 normals are examined at 31 National Weather ...
A Comparison of Observed and Model Energy Balance for an Extratropical Cyclone System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Eddy kinetic energy budgets are presented for both moist and dry 48 h forecasts and corresponding observations of a developing, winter extratropical cyclone. Forecasts are from the Drexel-NCAR Limited Area Mesoscale ...
The Impact of Latent Heat Release on Synoptic-Scale Vertical Motions and theDevelopment of an Extratropical Cyclone System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study investigates the influence of stable and convective latent heat release on synoptic-scale vertical motions and the corresponding evolution of an extratropical cyclone during a 48 h period of strong development. ...
