Summer Surface Flow Characteristics over Northeast Colorado
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Surface wind data from the program for Regional Observing and Forecasting Services (PROFS) have been analyzed to investigate the diurnal wind flow pattern over the broad drainage are of the South Platte River in northeast ...
The Use of Satellite Imagery and Surface Pressure-Gradient Analysis Modified for Sloping Terrain to Analyze the Mesoscale Events Preceding the Severe Hailstorms of 2 August 1986
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Conditions leading up to an outbreak of severe hailstorms in northeast Colorado are examined using satellite and surface data. A persistent mesoscale ridge of surface-high pressure, caused by outflow from a mesoscale- ...
Circulations Associated with a Mature-to-Decaying Midlatitude Mesoscale Convective System. Part I: Surface Features—Heat Bursts and Mesolow Development
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study examines surface features associated with a mature-to-dissipating midlatitude mesoscale convective system that occurred on 23?24 June 1985 during the Oklahoma-Kansas Preliminary Regional Experiment for STORM-Central. ...
Mesoscale Weather Effects of Variable Snow Cover over Northeast Colorado
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Data from the PROFS (Program for Regional Observing and Forecasting Services) surface mesonetwork have been used to document the effect of variable snow cover on atmospheric boundary layer properties cloudiness and weather ...
