Sentences with phrase «with updrafts»

Now, a rain drop remain buoyant until it reaches a certain size, and cloud with updrafts can have larger raindrops kept buoyant and rain rain may increase it's size falling.

Since lightning increases nonlinearly with updraft strength, the net result is about a 5 % increase in lightning flash rate.

Not exact matches

Due to the heating of the surface in connection with sufficient humidity, a warm updraft is released in the atmosphere.

For nearly a century, scientists had assumed Jupiter's weather worked like Earth's, with light zones forming around updrafts just as white clouds condense around rising currents here.

Activity within the eyewall is closely connected to the hurricane's overall intensity, with the vertical updraft fed by an inward - spiraling, ocean - hugging wind whose average speed is the highest across the whole storm.

The sudden increase in lightning is one sign a normal storm is rapidly evolving into a supercell, with a large rotating updraft — or mesocyclone — at its heart.

«Then, if the flash rate suddenly jumps to at least twice the standard deviation of that running average, there is a high probability the updraft in that cell has strengthened, a supercell is forming and severe weather is more likely with that storm.»

Scientists know that storms with a rotating updraft on their southwestern sides — which are particularly common in the spring on the U.S. southern plains — are associated with the biggest, most severe tornadoes and also produce a lot of large hail.

A low - altitude flow of warm, moist air from an ocean area combined with a flow of cold, dry polar air high up creates maximum instability, which means that parcels of air heated near the surface rise rapidly, creating powerful updrafts.

One promising alternative is to represent clouds using models with grids that capture the cloud updrafts and downdrafts based on principles of conservation of momentum and energy.

Hoping to catch some Halloween updraft, Horns, starring Daniel Radcliffe, landed rather weakly in 11th place, with # 396,000 from 379 cinemas, including # 95,000 in previews.

With the ability to create his own updraft to soar over his foes and strike from above, the Rito champion would be a worthy and powerful addition to the roster.

The rooftop pool perches at eye level with frigate birds soaring on updrafts — photo Hotel El Ganzo

Yuri Pattison also holds considerable UK curatorial updraft, with a major work the ideal (v. 0.1) presented as part of British Art Show 8, 2015 - 2017, and he was the recipient of the 2016 Frieze Artist Award, culminating in a major new commission Insights (crisis trolley).

The greater lesson: Cloud microphysics and cloud updraft dynamics interact with surface processes in very complex and unexpected ways which defy simple hypotheses.

Cumulus convection tends to occur episodically with individual updrafts.

A: Wind shear, changes in wind speed and direction with elevation, gives a thunderstorm its spin in the form of rotating updrafts called mesocyclones.

These coupled with the increased intrusion of the tropopause into the stratosphere appears to cause a change in the saturated adiabatic proccess and allows a greater updraft resulting in an increase in the fall distance of the condensensing water vapor resulting in high average winds and lower eye pressures.

Some convective updrafts can be more than 100kts vertically — with liquid water carried up to the tropopause where the air temperature is minus 40 deg or colder — and the water as it freezes releases latent heat — that is not in accordance with Stefan Boltzmann.

Anderson and his colleagues start with a new and unexpected observation, based on high - altitude flights and satellite measurements: powerful updrafts from powerful summer thunderstorms can send moisture much higher into the stratosphere than anyone had thought.

In general, clouds with more ice, and thus lower brightness temperatures, are more likely to produce lightning and to have moderate to strong updrafts and precipitation.

When updrafts are vigorous, water drops are easily carried above the freezing level and some collide with fluffy ice crystals to make larger, denser ice pellets called graupel.

In the western U.S., the model predicts fewer storms with strong updrafts overall, but about 25 % more of the strongest storms (Fig. 3).

Kellogg sank RAND Corp's 1950s fallout prediction computer model by formulating it in terms of very wooden assumptions (a static mushroom cloud, with particles unaffected by the central updraft and the toroidal downdraft around the periphery), unlike the rival USNRDL «dynamic» or D - model of fallout, which allowed heavy particles to fallout while small ones were still rising.

When the gust front gets under the updraft, it pulls up on the rotating air associated with the gust front, stretching it out, and causing it to spin faster... Both the source of rotation of the mesocyclone and the tornado ultimately come from environmental vertical shear, but a tornado can actually sometimes spin in the opposite direction.

Re 68 (myself)-- of course, some tornados are not from supercells — or are not formed by the exact same mechanism; generally what is needed is an updraft over a region of partly horizontal shear such as that associated with a gust front — it could be a gust front from another storm... there are landspouts, gustnados, etc... these tend to be weaker then the supercell tornados, as far as I know (And I'm not entirely sure what defines a «landspout»; for that matter, if a supercell tornado moves over water, is it then a waterspout or is it still a supercell tornado... anyone?)

This large wind turbine employs the downwind rotor which «makes good use of the updrafts in the locations with mountains and hills.»

The motor is reversible, allowing homeowners to change the direction of the fan from downdraft mode during the summer to updraft mode during the winter.Apache has an integrated LED light, covered with Clear Holophane glass, eliminating the need for bulb replacement.

It's all a long way from the «chuck out your chintz» campaign, but here at Housetohome we're wondering if there might be some mileage in the Yeezy floating through the air with Kardashian - Wests falling through a bracing updraft.
