Surface Microphysical Observations within East Coast Winter Storms on Long Island, New York
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: urface observations of ice habit and degree of riming were measured for 12 cyclone events over 3 winter seasons at Stony Brook, New York, on the northeast coast of the United States. A total of 205.6 cm of snow accumulated ...
Observed Microphysical Evolution for Two East Coast Winter Storms and the Associated Snow Bands
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper presents the observed microphysical evolution of two coastal extratropical cyclones (19?20 December 2009 and 12 January 2011) and the associated passage of heavy snowbands in the cyclone comma head. The observations ...
The Impact of Varying Environmental Conditions on the Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Orographic Precipitation over the Pacific Northwest near Portland, Oregon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: perational radar data from three winter seasons (2003?06) in Portland, Oregon, in the U.S. Pacific Northwest are used to describe how orographic precipitation varies with cross-barrier wind speed, 0°C level height, and ...
Comparisons of Modeled and Observed Reflectivities and Fall Speeds for Snowfall of Varied Riming Degrees during Winter Storms on Long Island, New York
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: erived radar reflectivities and fall speeds for four Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model bulk microphysical parameterizations (BMPs) run at 1.33-km grid spacing are compared with ground-based, vertically pointing ...
