The greater the rate of cooling (or lapse rate) the more unstable the air. On still nights when a cold pool forms, however, the atmosphere actually gets warmer as you go up the valley side, and as a result is highly stable. The fact that the air in the valley floor is cold also makes it denser, and the colder it becomes, the less likely it is to be shifted by light breezes springing up. In fact, the breezes will slide over the top of the cold pool and enhance the temperature difference and sharpness at the interface, strengthening the inversion further. This point is where the inversion cap lies -- if you plotted the temperature of the lowest few hundred metres (vertical) in the valley, you'd find the temperature was at a fairly even temperature through the cold pool, but then would rise very quickly (sometimes in a few metres) at the top of the cold air pool. It's an "inversion" because the normal temperature drop with height is inverted, and a cap because it caps the cold air and helps preserve it. A not-uncommon event in many parts of the world (I've experienced it in Sydney) is to have a strong inversion which has formed overnight suddenly blown apart by the arrival of strengthening gusty NW winds; the temperature change can be instantaneous and quite dramatic. I greatly enjoy riding my motorbike on still nights, and experiencing the dramatic temperature variations there can be between west-facing slopes, valley bottoms, and east-facing slopes. It would be interesting to do a temperature traverse with a recording thermometer suspended outside a car on such nights to see how well the shape of the temperature graph related to the topography. I well remember riding from Picton to Campbelltown via Douglas Park one late autumn evening. The road sidles around the lower slopes of Razorback mountain, rising and falling over short rounded ridges between shallow valleys that drain the southern side of the mountain. Katabatic cold-air flows were in full force down each of these depressions, with streams of cold, moist air with whisps of fog rolling across the road at maybe 10km/h. As I rode *out* of each gully's cold moist air into the much warmer air on the west-facing sides of the ridges, my visor and rear vision mirrors would instantaneously fog up, only to clear nearly as suddenly as I neared each crest. The regularity of it was so surprising that I went back and rode through it again, wondering about both the temperature and humidity structure. I've never fully understood the physics at work in that situation, but suspect it was something akin to condensation forming quickly on a bottle of soft drink taken out of the frig on a warm, fairly humid day. -- Laurier Williams Australian Weather Links and News http://www.ozemail.com.au/~wbc/ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from aussie-weather send e-mail to:majordomo at world.std.com with "unsubscribe aussie-weather your_email_address" in the body of your message. -----------------------jacob at iinet.net.au------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 002 From: John Woodbridge [jrw at pixelcom.net] To: "'aussie-weather at world.std.com'" [aussie-weather at world.std.com] Subject: RE: aus-wx: Microclimates, was Cold spots in Blackheath Date: Tue, 13 Jul 1999 01:55:19 +1000 Organization: Pixel Components Pty Ltd X-Mailer: Microsoft Internet E-mail/MAPI - 8.0.0.4211 Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Hi Laurier I have experienced a more severe form of this at Hornsby: Landcruiser parked outside approx 1/4 way down the Waitara Ck valley. Get up one very cold winter morning - hop into car, surprisingly I have clear vision. Drive up towards plateau level - just 100m horizontal, 25m vertical distance, only to have ice form rapidly over windscreen and obscure vision. (Hop out and scrape away...) This was interesting because normally the ice forms on the car while in the valley. In this case the cold air in the valley must have been also quite dry, chilling the car exterior to below zero but subliming off any condensation. Sufficiently cold to then cause condensation & instant ice upon drriving up into warmer and presumably also more humid air.

Hence the bow and then spiral shaped echo. So it was no co-incidence. >From the books I have read on radar meteorology, this can often be a sign of tornadic activity and usually indicates rotation within the storm system, especially if it is a persistent feature. On this occasion, it was apparent for 3 radar scans which meant about half and hour. The storm itself lasted only an hour before dissipating. As an aside, spiral shaped storms have been observed on radar in the rain bands of tropical cyclones and tornadoes and waterspouts have been associated with mid-lattitude cyclones too. Often for waterspouts, their scale is too small to be detected by radar such as Sydney's. However, for larger supercell type storms, such as found in the rainbands of TC's, features such as hook and bow shape echoes may be apparent on radar. - Paul G. >From: Les Crossan >Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com >To: aussie-weather at world.std.com >Subject: Re: aus-wx: Rotating Storm off Sydney Coast... >Date: Mon, 12 Jul 1999 19:13:34 +0100 > > > >Paul Graham wrote: > > > Hi everyone, > > A rotating, oceanic thunderstorm was spotted on radar off Sydney.

Hi Paul and everyone, I noticed some lightning off the coast of Sydney as I was driving to the city at a little after 6:00pm last night. I only saw seven flashes over about 10 minutes although I think the storm would have been dying at that time. I remember some storms which developed off the Sydney coast last year. Several had very meaty anvils and pronounced overshooting tops at various stages which had me thinking, without the benefit of radar, that they may have been this sort of supercell variant. Maybe we need a boat.... _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Local flash flooding is possible along the coastal areas from Coffs Harbour to the NSW south coast. Minor to moderate main river flooding also possible along the Lower Hunter [including Paterson and Williams], Georges, Woronora and Shoalhaven Rivers.

Fascinating. I love all of this stuff. I've got this young guy (17) at tennis that is fascinated by the weather and he laps up this info. He knows its not from me, I tell him there are much more informed minds than mine. I must say, I am looking forward to my partner's brother moving into the Canberra area soon (he was in Tassy). He studied as a medical physicist but has since moved into Oceanography etc. It's hard to get a lot out of him as he is a quiet chap but he has good weather knowledge. Must try and get him on the list. Does anyone on Aussie-Weather know him? (Dr) Stephen Walker is his name. Lindsay P. PS: Re your biking, I miss my bike days. I did more off track stuff and it got a bit addictive. My dad used to have a side car ages ago. It's my dream to get into it again, heading out west towards Orange and Canobolas with my tent (And in search of Terry Bishop) but we need another car first. :-( And my partner worries about me too much as I have a rather adventurous streak. But this all belongs to another list...sorry weather folk.

I did notice some cirrostratus moving from the NNW above the Sydney CBD at 7.15 this morning but some of that stuff coming in from the east looked almost like thunderstorm material late this afternoon over the north shore..

And well maybe it is because I haven't asked for any. Doh. Well this month submission deadline is fast approaching for the 26th of July.

If sending the images by email, convert the images to "JPG" format and keep them under 100 kb in size. 2. Make the image 400 pixels in width. (I will except larger ones and rescale them to fit but they must be under 100kb's in size) 3. Include your Name, Postal address, Email (if you have one), The location and date the photo/photos where taken, short description of the weather that day (as you remember it) and (if possible) the camera type, film type and camera settings.

Date: Tue, 13 Jul 1999 22:10:09 +1000 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.71.1712.3 Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Hi all, Here in Taralga (NE Southern Tablelands) we've had heavy drizzle with some 'bordering on rain' patches all day, with the same situation continuing now. Looks like Wollongong - which is directly E of here - is drying out all the air!! Plenty of Fog and Low cloud though! All models, as I look at them now, show a good chance of a little snow developing next Tuesday on NSW ranges. I doesn't seem to be the major cold snap we've been waiting for though. Ah, it's a 144 hr chart, anything could happen! Andrew.
