When the spinning MCV interacted with the stalled front and a very humid, unstable air mass, it triggered powerful ...

The degree of mixing and friction significantly affect the maximum height calculated for situations of apparent convective instability (Figure 3).

In late winter, lakes at high latitudes are often covered in ice and have an inverted stratification with cold water on top ...

CAPE is a measure of instability CAPE stands for Convective Available Potential Energy, a measure of the amount of instability present in the atmosphere. The metric is also sometimes called ...

“This convective instability in the desert is now like a vertical pump, that is taking the dust and delivering it to the upper atmosphere where it can seed clouds.” Lori Fenton, a planetary ...

Yellow flags are flying from Bay County to Walton and across Franklin County, including the stretch from Destin to Carrabelle ...

THE STORM DAMAGE Despite the convection being widespread throughout ... Although shear was significant and instability adequate, the shear was more top heavy in the atmosphere, meaning wind ...

Snowfall is expected to intensify by early afternoon as atmospheric instability increases, leading to more widespread and convective activity. Showers will gradually diminish this evening.
