Abstract: A squall line on 2 May 1979 developed in Oklahoma in proximity to a synoptic-scale cold front. This line is analyzed during its growth and mature periods using radar, satellite, sounding and surface data. Some of the cells ...
Upper-Level Structure of Oklahoma Tornadic Storms on 2 May 1979. II: Proposed Explanation of “V” Pattern and Internal Warm Region in Infrared Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An analysis of the GOES measurements of a severe thunderstorm anvil on 2 May 1979 presented in Part I (Heymsfield et al.) showed a ?V? shaped region of low infrared temperatures (TBB) and an internal region of high TBB. ...
