SURFACE PRESSURE VARIATIONS AT COASTAL STATIONS DURING THE PERIOD OF IRREGULAR MOTION OF HURRICANE CARLA OF 1961
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Surface pressure observations at stations along the Texas coast during the approach of hurricane Carla of 1961 have been examined in an attempt to determine the extent to which the storm as a whole participated in the ...
MARKED CHANGES IN THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE EYE OF INTENSE TYPHOONS BETWEEN THE DEEPENING AND FILLING STAGES
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aircraft reconnaissance observations from the eye of unusually deep typhoons (minimum sea level pressure ≤900 mb) indicate that temperature and moisture conditions in the layer between the surface and 700 mb usually undergo ...
Diurnal Variation of Precipitation in the Eastern Tropical Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Summaries of ship observations for four marine areas off the west coast of Africa have been used to describe the diurnal variation of precipitation in the eastern tropical Atlantic. These long-term means show a definitive ...
MEAN SOUNDINGS FOR THE WEST INDIES AREA
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Mean aerological data for the West Indies area have been prepared from ten-year records for three stations. Mean monthly height, temperature and relative humidity data are tabulated for constant pressure surfaces. More ...
ABNORMALLY COLD TROPOPAUSE TEMPERATURES IN THE EQUATORIAL PACIFIC
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Radiosonde observations made at Kusaie in the eastern Caroline Islands on May 15?16, 1956, reported tropopause temperatures colder than ?86° C. in several instances with an extreme value of ?96° C. This series of soundings ...
A NON-TORNADIC SPIRAL-SHAPED RADAR ECHO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A spiral-shaped radar echo, apparently of non-tornadic origin, was observed over southwestern Alabama on the afternoon of July 1, 1959. A series of scope photographs of the CPS-9 radar at Maxwell Air Force Base shows that ...
MEAN SOUNDINGS FOR THE GULF OF MEXICO AREA
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Mean aerological data for the Gulf of Mexico area have been prepared from 10-year records for three stations. Mean monthly height, temperature, and relative humidity data are tabulated for constant pressure surfaces. More ...
