Abstract

During the Convection and Precipitation/Electrification (CaPE) project in east-central Florida, complete data sets were collected from six days on which deep moist convection with radar reflectivities greater than 35 dBz was initiated by rools. These days were compared with data from two days on which rolls alone did not initiation. The comparison was done to ascertain why roll forcing was sufficient to produce storms on some days but not on other days.
