Rethinking the Spanish plume: An airstream analysis challenges the canonical conceptual model
Three‐dimensional airstream model showing the history of air‐parcel trajectories arriving at Nottingham on 1200 UTC 1 July 2015 at 950, 850, 650 and 250 hPa, respectively. Four different airstreams are illustrated, none of which can be easily called the Spanish‐plume airstream.

Using high‐resolution turbulence‐resolving simulations, we analyze the wind structure in the eyewall of Hurricane Laura (2020) and validate the results with observational data. Our findings show significant variations in wind speed and turbulence, especially above 50 m.

Utilization of satellite data in mesoscale modeling of severe weather [PDF]
The Visible Infrared Spin Scan Radiometer Atmospheric Sounder (VAS) data were used to model the 36 hour cyclogenesis period over the Pacific Ocean. Various combinations of VAS data, conventional radiosonde data, and gridded data from the National Weather

A theory for the retrieval of virtual temperature from winds, radiances and the equations of fluid dynamics [PDF]
A technique to deduce the virtual temperature from the combined use of the equations of fluid dynamics, observed wind and observed radiances is described.

A new approach assimilating the temporal variation of geostationary clear‐sky radiance observations has been proposed and first tested using the US global model. In this initial study, the technique produces neutral to slightly positive forecast metrics compared to traditional radiance assimilation over all surface types.

A study of the 23 October 2022 southern England damaging MCS
During the afternoon of 23 October 2022, a mesoscale convective system (MCS) developed and intensified over the English Channel and tracked north‐northeastward into southern England, producing widespread damaging winds and at least three moderate to strong tornadoes in Hampshire.

An observational study of a circular gust front over the Yangtze Delta, China
Concentric gust fronts are formed when a thunderstorm's downdraft reaches the ground and the outflow from the cold pool spreads uniformly outwards into the surrounding warm and humid air mass. Observational evidence presented here show the case of narrow‐band echoes forming a ring around a thunderstorm.

A study to define meteorological uses and performance requirements for the Synchronous Earth Observatory Satellite [PDF]
The potential meteorological uses of the Synchronous Earth Observatory Satellite (SEOS) were studied for detecting and predicting hazards to life, property, or the quality of the environment.

The Bayesian sinking in Porticello: a predictable convective windstorm?
The meteorological phenomenon that led to the Bayesian yacht sinking in Sicily at 0206 utc on 19 August 2024 is here investigated. A thunderstorm occurred during the sinking, but uncertainties exist regarding whether a waterspout or a downburst affected the ship. An in‐depth analysis of available observations highlighted that the ship was likely struck
