Journal ArticleDOI
A Baseline Climatology of Sounding-Derived Supercell and Tornado Forecast Parameters
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined all of the 0000 UTC soundings from the United States made during the year 1992 that have nonzero convective available potential energy (CAPE) and classified them as nonsupercell thunderstorms, supercells without significant tornadoes, and supercells with significant hurricanes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variability of Storm-Relative Helicity during VORTEX
TL;DR: In this article, storm-relative helicity (SRH) and low-level vertical shear of the horizontal wind fields were investigated on the mesoscale and stormscale in regions where tornadoes occurred for four case studies using data collected during the Verification of the Origin of Rotation in Tornadoes Experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Association of Significant Tornadoes with a Baroclinic Boundary on 2 June 1995
TL;DR: In this article, the surface conditions, vertical vorticity, and horizontal vortivity near the boundary were documented using conventional and special observations from the VORTEX field program.
