The Oklahoma Storms of April 2, 1994
Answer to Question 4
|
|
Question 4. Look at the Mesonet temperature, dew point, solar radiation, and wind fields at 4:30 p.m. How have they changed since 2:30?
How do the temperature, dew point, and wind fields relate to one another?
|
Answer. The cold front has moved further south and the warm front has moved further north. The surface low
has moved slightly to the south and east as well. The dryline has pushed eastward and the dewpoint gradient
has sharpened. Solar radiation has changed with the frontal positions as well with the first storms forming. |
