When a cold front passes through, the weather becomes significantly colder and drier. (It isn't uncommon for air temperatures to drop 10 degrees Fahrenheit or more within an hour of a cold frontal passage.) Occluded Fronts Sometimes a cold front will "catch up" to a warm front and overtake...

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Sunday will start off warm and muggy, but the first of several cold fronts will slowly move through and bringing slightly cooler conditions for Monday. Low level clouds and some coastal fog returns Saturday night and will be preset Sunday morning. Sea fog along the...
Extreme wildfires have devastating impacts on multiple fronts, and associated carbon greatly heats the earth’s climate. Whether and how to predict wildfires becomes a critical question. In this study, we find that the preceding-winter “warm Arctic-cold Eurasia” (WACE) pattern significantly enlarge...
This result is likely explained by the introduction of sub-grid 28 variations of cloud properties in CAM6 cloud microphysics, which further suppresses the scheme 29 sensitivity to individual warm rain microphysical parameters. The predicted cloud susceptibilities 30 to CCN perturbations in CAM6 are ...
The mid-Holocene climate optimum saw warm temperatures in large parts of China, but its impact on seasonal environmental changes is not fully understood yet. Here, we use high-resolution geochemical analyses of 7000 to 6000 year-old oyster shells from th
Horizontal transport of fluid into the ring can be explained by a horizontal diffusivity of ≈ 90 m2 s−1 if adjective effects are ignored. Adjective terms make the actual strength of diffusion uncertain. Shear dispersion or inward radial advection can reduce the necessary diffusivity while an ...
Many insurers hit a barrier; climate science shows different scenarios with rising temperatures, and whether certain perils are influenced by this, but not how this translates to more extreme weather – or what the real-world impacts could be. RMS recognised this, and has examined each peril ...
The setpoint is increased in the summer because the lower winter setpoint may be effectively unattainable in warm summer weather by using only evaporative cooling. Thus, while a “best,” lower, setpoint temperature applies in the winter, that same setpoint is not realistic, in the example, in...
Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are one of the most impactful weather phenomena on Earth. MCSs are defined as convective systems with contiguous precipitation over 100 km in at least one direction [1,2]. More importantly, MCSs contribute significantly to warm-season precipitation, both in the...
