Journal ArticleDOI

The Environment of Warm-Season Elevated Thunderstorms Associated with Heavy Rainfall over the Central United States

TL;DR: In this article, storm-relative composites of numerous kinematic and thermodynamic fields are computed by centering on the heavy-rain-producing region of the parent elevated mesoscale convective system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Initiation of an Elevated Mesoscale Convective System Associated with Heavy Rainfall

TL;DR: A mesoscale convective system (MCS) developed during the morning hours of 6 June 1993 and moved across northern and central Missouri, resulting in a narrow swath of excessive rainfall (>150 mm).
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of Sublimational Cooling in a Late-Season Midwestern Snow Event

TL;DR: In this article, a surprise late-season snow event over eastern Missouri and western Illinois was analyzed using observed data and a successful simulation with a mesoscale numerical model, the event was scrutinized to determine the forcing mechanisms for the precipitation over a small area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluating elevated convection with the downdraft convective inhibition

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for evaluating the penetration of a stable layer by an elevated convective downdraft is discussed, and it is shown that the dowdraft penetration potential is progressively enabled as the DCIN is progressively smaller than the DCAPE; inversely as DCIN increases over DCAPE, so does the likelihood of purely elevated convection.
