Abstract: Observation of an overcast of low cloudiness on a Denver Cyclone day revealed a circular area of clearing or ?eye? at the approximate center or the mesoscale circulation. The eye passed close to an automated observing ...

Abstract: This is Part II of a two-part paper describing the vertical profile of radar reflectivity in GATE convective cells. Time-height radar life histories for 42 cells over three GATE days are examined, using data from the Quadra ...

Abstract: The case of a tornadic thunderstorm on 26 July 1985 in northeastern Colorado is described from the synoptic to the thunderstorm scale utilizing a number of datasets some of which will become operational in the 1990s. The ...

Abstract: The evolution of the 26 July 1985 Erie, Colorado tornado is described using data from NCAR's CP-2 Doppler radar. This tornado develops within 20 km of the radar site under weakly forced synoptic conditions and weak ...

Abstract: This is Part I of a two-paper describing the structure of the vertical profile of radar reflectivity in convective cells which are of part of mesoscale convective systems in GATE. Earlier work has established that ...

Abstract: During the late afternoon and early evening of 6 June 1990, a series of severe thunderstorms produced nine tornadoes and numerous incidents of large hail on the High Plains of eastern Colorado. While the morning synoptic ...

Abstract: An assessment of the value of data from the NOAA Profiler Network (NPN) on weather forecasting is presented. A series of experiments was conducted using the Rapid Update Cycle (RUC) model/assimilation system in which various ...

Abstract: Stormscale Operational and Research Meteorology-Fronts Experimental Systems Test (STORM-FEST) was held from 1 February to 15 March 1992 in the central United States as a preliminary field systems test for an eventual ...

Abstract: he increasing use of mobile phones (MPs) equipped with digital cameras and the ability to post images and information to the Internet in real time has significantly improved the ability to report events almost instantaneously. ...
