GRAY ENVIRONMENTAL INFLUENCES ON HURRICANE INTENSIFICATION By Robert T. Merrill Deparbnent of Atmospheric Science Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado 80523 December, 1985 Atmospheric Science Paper No. 394 ABSTRACT Though qualitatively similar in structure. different hurricanes can attain different peak intensities during their lifetimes. Forecasters and empiricists relate the intensity to the sea surface temperature and the "effectiveness" of the upper troPospheric outflow. but offer no clear explanation of how the latter operates. Numerical modelers usually ignore the surrounding flow and emphasize interaction between the convective and vortex scales exclusively. This paper examines more closely the observed upper-tropospheric environmental flow differences between hurricanes which intensify and those which fail to do so. and combines them with previously published empirical and modeling results into a general conceptual model of environmental influences on hurricane intensification. Upper troPospheric wind observations (from satellite cloud tracking. aircraft reports, and rawinsondes) are canposited for 28 hurricanes according to intensity tendency. A rotated coordinate system based on the outflow jet location is used so that the asymmetric flow structure is preserved. Little difference is observed in total outflow on the synoptic scale. However, intensifying hurricanes have a less constricted outflow with evidence or lateral connections with the surrounding flow. The asymmetric flow consists of a wave thought to be associated with barotropic instability or the anticyclonic flow above the hurricane and the juxtaposition of surrounding Clow Ceatures.

  • 11 D.T. Martin, L.B. Perry. Snowfall Event Characteristics from a High
    70th EASTERN SNOW CONFERENCE Huntsville, ON, Canada 2013 Snowfall Event Characteristics from a High Elevation Site in the Southern Appalachian Mountains DANIEL T. MARTIN1 AND L. BAKER PERRY1 ABSTRACT Accurate assessment of snowfall patterns in high elevation remote areas is essential to providing the necessary boundary conditions for climatological analyses. The Southern Appalachian region of the eastern U.S. provides a unique study area due to its low latitude and proximity to the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Ocean. Major snowstorms, such as Hurricane Sandy in October 2012, can result in heavy snowfall of 100 cm or greater in favored upslope regions. These properties make the understanding of precipitation patterns especially important as deep snowpack is often exposed to heavy rainfall, cloud immersion, and high dew point temperatures, further exacerbating flooding threats. To contribute to this understanding, we deployed the Mobile Precipitation Research And Monitoring (MOPRAM) station on Roan Mt. (1875 m asl) on the Tennessee/North Carolina border in October 2012. MOPRAM has allowed for the analysis of liquid equivalent precipitation, new snowfall, snow depth, air temperature, and relative humidity at high temporal resolutions during the 2012-13 snow season. This paper analyzes the observed snowfall event characteristics (e.g., new snowfall, liquid equivalent precipitation, local atmospheric conditions, and synoptic patterns) and how these characteristics compare to other sites in the southern Appalachian Mountains. Between October 2012 and March 2013 over 60 discrete precipitation events were categorized, nearly half of which (25) qualified for further analyses. Results indicate that multiple storms were associated with low-level temperature profiles greater than the dry adiabatic lapse rate, and that the Roan Mountain site received on average 3.2 times more snow liquid equivalent (SLE) than nearby Poga Mt.

    P-3 Publications Original Article : © January 2015 by David Reade (P-3 Publications) The Unrealized History of the Military’s Utilization of Weather as a Weapon, the “Real” Father of Weaponized Weather and the Secret Hurricane Modification Program Nobody Has Ever Heard Of. By David Reade Article Disclaimer: This article seeks to disclose the unrealized history of the weaponization of weather (1961- 72) which is currently misunderstood and not correctly represented within the Universal Record. The information contained in these pages does not address any perceived weather waponization efforts that may have been developed since 1972, when the designed checks and balances of a modern democracy evaluated the issue raised at the time, conducted public hearings and subsequently recommended a halt to any and all militarized weather modification practices from continuing. Any suggestions to continued weaponized weather operations by the US Military, under ultra-secured programs, are not addressed here. Cover Photo: a tropical cloud near the Philippines, cloud seeded with Silver iodide by the US Navy during Operation GROMET II drought relief efforts (circa 1969) - photo by Dr. Edwin X Berry. One of the really annoying things to see in the “Universal Record” (a term for lack of a better one) that comprises current and archival newspapers, magazines, books and internet webpages, is the incorrect information that is a result of superficial research and a general lack of understanding of the source information – coupled with inherent biases of the originators of said information and or the misconstruing of reference information available to the public. 1 P-3 Publications Original Article : © January 2015 by David Reade (P-3 Publications) Such is the case with the universal record’s view (here to be referred to as simply the “public record” or by its individual components) of Weather Modification, the understanding of cloud seeding, Chemtrails and the past or present concepts of weaponized weather.

Allison and Harold P. Thompson Goddard Space Flight Center Greenbelt, Md. NATIONAL AERONAUT ICs AND SPACE ADM IN ISTRATION For sale by the Clearinghouse for Federal Scientific and Technical Information Springfield, Virginia 22151 - Price $2.00 I ABSTRACT Eight tropical cyclones of the 1963 North Atlantic hurricane season were studied using Tiros VI1 Channel 2 (8-12p) radiation data. Seventeen computer-produced radiation charts were analyzed in order to delineate the three dimensional cloud structure over these storms. Time cross- sections were drawn over Hurricanes Cindy and Edith in order to relate the warm core development and upper-level outflow of the storms with their respective cloud canopies, as shown by the radiation data. Tiros VI and VI1 television pictures and nephanalyses, aerial re- connaissance weather reports, radar photographs, radiosonde data, and conventional synoptic analyses were used to complement the Tiros VII radiation data. An attempt was made to correlate minimum equivalent blackbody temperatures T,, measured by the satellite over the tropical cyclones with maximum observed surface wind speeds. However, the minimum T,, values were found to vary from 205 to 220°K in several stages of hurricane development, and no significant relationship between tropical cyclone intensity and cloud top heights could be found from the limited data sample available.
