SATELLITE PHOTOGRAPHS OF CONVECTIVE CLOUDS AND THEIR RELATION TO THE VERTICAL WIND SHEAR
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Several TIROS photographs of cumulonimbus clouds and thunderstorms over the Florida area are compared with synoptic surface and upper-wind data. The orientations of the cirrus anvils of well-developed clouds generally show ...
Hemispheric Anomalies of 700 mb Height and Sea Level Pressure Related to Mean Summer Temperatures over the United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hemispheric composites of 700 mb height during each of four unusually warm summers in the contiguous United States show a characteristic ?3-wave? pattern of anticyclonic anomalies over the eastern North Pacific, the United ...
Hemispheric Anomalies of 700 mb Height Related to Mean Temperature for Fall, Winter and Spring in the United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Zonally averaged composite anomalies of 700 mb height for years preceding and during four warm winters in the contiguous United States show generally positive anomalies over subtropical and middle latitudes and generally ...
DIAGNOSTIC STUDY OF A TROPICAL DISTURBANCE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An area of disturbed weather over the Bahamas is studied in detail for the 3-day period, Aug. 9?11, 1966. The coupling of an upper level cold-core cyclone with an approaching low-level wave was largely responsible for the ...
SOME ASPECTS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF HURRICANE DOROTHY
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hurricane Dorothy, July 1966, possessed both extratropical and tropical features. A number of factors contributed to storm development, including a well-defined pre-existing disturbance, high-level advection of vorticity ...
EARLY HISTORY OF TROPICAL STORM KATHERINE, 1963
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The history of the Eastern Pacific tropical cyclone, Katherine, is presented for the period Scptcmhcr 8?17, 1963. It is shown that Katherine was the same storm as one which earlier had been named Jennifer. The complementary ...
Tropical Storm, Mid-Latitude Cloud-Band Connections and the Autumnal Buildup of the Planetary Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Satellite photographs have revealed the occasional existence of broad and extensive cloud bands reaching from tropical storms northeastward into the westerlies of middle latitudes. Fourteen well-defined cases of such cloud ...
