Abstract

The microphysical, thermodynamic and vertical air motion characteristics of a hailstorm which occurred in northeast Colorado were investigated through penetrations by the T-28 research aircraft. On the basis of these measurements, the structure and composition of the regions of the strongest updrafts, the peripheral updraft and downdraft regions, and the quiescent regions of the storm were estimated. -from Authors
