and speed through the following 120 h. In addition, the minimum sea level pressure ( ) and the maximum surface wind ( ) are forecast through 72 h. The majority of TC values reported by operational centers are derived from application of the Dvorak technique by converting a Dvorak current intensity (CI) number directly to a ( Velden et al. 2012 ). Thus, differences in the CI values between agencies are commonly expected within a ±0.5 CI number between different analysts performing the

considerations of cooling and heating properties can be achieved through the probability theory application. In general, the probability of a cooling period L c with a length at least equal to m can be written implicitly as A simpler version of this equation emerges when the successive occurrences of the temperature records are independent from each other: On the other hand, if the temperature occurrences are also identically distributed, then the simplest case results in the power form as P ( L c ≥ m

objective, SEPA partnered with the United Kingdom’s National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS) and the University of Leeds’ School of Earth and Environment to conduct a pilot study of the use of X-band radar entitled Radar Applications in Northern Scotland (RAiNS). Operational weather radar data quality over northern Scotland, particularly near Inverness, is reduced due to the location and spacing of radars relative to the mountainous terrain.

. Distributed temperature sensing (DTS) systems are attractive due to their ability to continuously sample at relatively high temporal and spatial resolution for significant duration over broad spatial scales. Although DTS use in environmental applications has increased since 2006, application to oceanography is complex and still relatively rare ( Shanafield et al. 2018 ). DTS systems observe the Raman scatter from laser light pulsed through an optical fiber to observe its temperature. Sensitive electronics

1. Introduction Lightning-caused impacts to both people and infrastructure are substantial in the United States and globally ( Holle 2016 ). In terms of lightning avoidance for individuals as well as industrial applications, a balance needs to be assessed between safety and efficiency. Airport ramp closures leading to stoppage of ground operations are an example of exposure to the lightning threat. Impacts include suspension of refueling, baggage handling, aircraft movement, aircraft and cabin
