| title | Key questions and tasks using the control forecast |
|---|
|
- Understand the weather situation resulting in tornadoes
- Evaluate the control forecast and compare it to the ECMWF reanalysis and observations
- What is the area of threat according to the control forecast? Area of threat = the area where severe weather can expected. This can be identified by considering parameters such as CAPE, CIN, 850-hPa equivalent potential temperature.
- How does the convective adjustment process takes place and and what is the role of large scale forcing (why and where it happens)?
