Studies such as this one by @Weathernerds (https://t.co/vJW0o9HqeU) have shown that the shape of the hodograph plays a role in the amount of intensification, with +SRH favoring the rotation of convection upshear and leading to deepening. https://t.co/k2…
@burgwx @AndyHazelton @cyclonicwx Can only speculate, but looks like high 30-kt+ shear at T66-h is isolated in deep (200-850 mb) layer & shear below that layer is much lower. @feet_pinocchio has a nice paper showing TCs struggle more in shallow vs. de…
@backinblack_wx @AndyHazelton @AngelieTeresa While I couldn't see the original talk as I'm not attending the conference (looks very interesting though!), I just wanted to point toward other studies that have indeed showed the depth of the shear layer is…
RT @webberweather: Why are shallower, lower-level wind shears worse for TCs? 1) The same shear in a shallower layer = more vortex tilt + l…
