Abstract: A quasi-objective method is presented for predicting the occurrence of thunderstorms in the Atlanta area during the 12-hour period beginning at 1330 EST in the months of July and August. Variables measuring moisture, ...

Abstract: A case study of the formation of an instability line traversed by the tornado research airplane before, during and after development is presented. Five traverses at the 800-mb level and two traverses at the 700-mb level ...

Abstract: The scatter of summer showers in both time and space over the southeastern States is such that the distribution of synoptic weather reporting does not permit an accurate appraisal of the distribution of rainfall. The ...

Abstract: A comparison was made of the ratings of TV weather programs presented by AMS professional meteorologists vs. nonprofessional personnel. It was found, on the average weekday during February and March 1969, that an estimated ...

Abstract: Composite charts of height (or sea level pressure), temperature, and dew point were prepared for the surface, 850-, 700-, and 500-mb. levels for tornado occurrences in 6 different areas in the United States. Cases selected ...

Abstract: An objective method is presented for predicting the occurrence of winter time precipitation during the 24-hour period beginning at 0730 EST at Atlanta, Ga. Variables measuring moisture, temperature advection, and flow ...

Abstract: A model is proposed as one means whereby an air mass characterized by the ?typical? tornado sounding is converted to one described by the type of sounding observed in the vicinity of a tornado. By considering certain ...
