MLCAPE plume from the 09z SREFNotes:The 09z run of the SREF indicated MLCAPE values maximizing around or just before 18z. The mean MLCAPE value was around 1000 J/kg, but a large range was indicated, with values ranging from around 800 J/kg to nearly 2000 J/kg. By 00z on the 3rd, around the time that the frontal passage was expected, values were ranging from around 300 to 900 J/kg. ![]() Slide 12 |
