| Title: | A hailstorm in Hong Kong / B.Y. Lee, C.M. Cheng, S.C. Tai. |
| Author(s): | Lee, B. Y. Cheng, C. M. Tai, S. C. |
| Date: | 1996. |
| In: | Weather. (1996.), Vol. 51(3) (1996) |
| Abstract: | Hail is mainly a mid-latitude phenomenon, but this low latitude supercell storm event was observed using a 10 cm radar with a beam width of 1.8 degrees and surface measurements. A strong low-level inflow at right-angles to the mean flow was observed, with a marked vertical speed shear and a dry middle layer with nearly uniform winds. |
| Notes: | Weather. Vol. 51(3) :91-94 (colour plates on p.97) (1996). |
