NUCAPS Lapse Rates ahead of a line of convection in lower Michigan
Radar imagery from the upper midwest at 1858 UTC, below, showed convection moving into lower Michigan. NUCAPS thermodynamics, above, suggest that the convection would not dissipate in Michigan. An elevated mixed layer with lapse rates of 7 C/km between 500 and 700 mb is indicated.NUCAPS Points for the afternoon pass... Read More
