Climatology and Ingredients of Significant Severe Convection in High-Shear, Low-CAPE Environments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: igh-shear, low-CAPE (HSLC) environments, here characterized by surface-based CAPE ≤ 500 J kg?1, most unstable parcel CAPE ≤ 1000 J kg?1, and 0?6-km shear vector magnitude ≥ 18 m s?1, occur at all times of day, across all ...

The Development of Severe Vortices within Simulated High-Shear, Low-CAPE Convection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractEnvironments characterized by large values of vertical wind shear and modest convective available potential energy (CAPE) are colloquially referred to as high-shear, low-CAPE (HSLC) environments. Convection within ...
Radar-Based Comparison of Thunderstorm Outflow Boundary Speeds versus Peak Wind Gusts from Automated Stations

Radar Signatures Associated with Quasi-Linear Convective System Mesovortices

Composite Environments of Severe and Nonsevere High-Shear, Low-CAPE Convective Events
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: evere convection occurring in environments characterized by large amounts of vertical wind shear and limited instability (high-shear, low-CAPE, or ?HSLC,? environments) represents a considerable forecasting and nowcasting ...
Rapid Evolution of Cool Season, Low-CAPE Severe Thunderstorm Environments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ow-CAPE (i.e., CAPE ≤ 1000 J kg?1) severe thunderstorms are common in the greater southeastern United States (including the Tennessee and Ohio valleys). These events are often poorly forecasted, and the environments in ...
Partnering Research, Education, and Operations via a Cool Season Severe Weather Soundings Program
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractRecent research has improved our knowledge and forecasting of high-shear, low-CAPE (HSLC) severe convection, which produces a large fraction of overnight and cool season tornadoes. However, limited near-storm ...
