Meteorological conditions for wet snow occurrence in France, calculated and measured results in a recent case study, on March 5th, 1985 / Hervé Gland, P. Admirat.

Title: Meteorological conditions for wet snow occurrence in France, calculated and measured results in a recent case study, on March 5th, 1985 / Hervé Gland, P. Admirat.
Author(s): Gland, Hervé.
Admirat, P.
Date: 1991.
Publisher: Ottawa: Environment Canada
In: Proceedings of the Third International Workshop on the Atmospheric Icing of Structures, 6-8 May 1986, Vancouver, Canada. (1991.),
Abstract: Outlines causes of wet snow events in France and describes specific example of one type, where cyclonic Mediterranean disturbances generate cold-air advection over Mediterranean Sea. This caused wet snowfall around Grenoble. Main characteristics of accreted snow on electric power lines were measured in different areas and compared with characteristics calculated with theoretical model. If trajectory, intensity, and duration of snowfalls could be forecast, then location, time, and intensity of damage on power lines could also be predicted.
