Numerical Simulation of Radial Cloud Bands within the Upper-Level Outflow of an Observed Mesoscale Convective System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Turbulence affecting aircraft is frequently reported within bands of cirrus anvil cloud extending radially outward from upstream deep convection in mesoscale convective systems (MCSs). A high-resolution convection permitting ...
Warm Upper-Level Downdrafts Associated with a Squall Line
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Thermodynamic retrieval analysis applied to a composite of dual-Doppler radar data obtained in the 10?11 June 1985 PRE-STORM (Preliminary Regional Experiment for STORM-Central) squall line and a model simulation of a similar ...
Hailstorms in Switzerland: Left Movers, Right Movers, and False Hooks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the central region of Switzerland, lying between the Jura Mountains to the north and the Alps to the south, severe hailstorms are a common summertime phenomenon. Eight years of data on these hailstorms show that they ...
