Abstract

The processes of development of graupel and hail which fell to the ground from a storm in NE Colorado on 22 July 1976 are investigated over a one-hour period. The growth and trajectories of 130 000 particles of different types and sizes are calculated in the measured three-dimensional wind fields. The growth conditions that these graupel and hail experience are presented and their trajectories are described.-from Author
