Met Random
This temperature of air has the least convection
Cold Air
This is the term for lines of equal temperature
Isotherms
For a Jet Stream to be named as such, it needs to have a flow velocity greater than this
60 knots
Convective Thunder Clouds would be found around this type of Front.
Cold Front
The pressure gradient determines this
The strength of the wind
Pressure levels in the atmosphere will be highest during this season
Summer
This is what the winds are called when the Pressure Gradient Force equals the Coriolis Force
Geostrophic
This Season has the fastest Jet Stream Velocity
Winter (Why?)
This is why the Arctic and Antarctic do not receive sunshine in the winter
Extreme low sun angle
Clear Air Turbulence (CAT) is defined as this
All turbulence that is not in or adjacent to convective activity
This is the term for lines of equal wind speed
IsoTach
A Thermal wind is not actual wind but is the difference between the actual winds at ____________________.
Two different pressure levels
The speed of a Jet Stream is usually found at it's __________________.
Core
Clear Air Turbulence generally forms in this preferred location
A Jet Stream
CAT generally forms as a result of this
Vertical Wind Shear
The term for long thin "contact lens" like clouds forming due to adiabatic cooling and heating in a lee wave crest
Lenticulars
Thermal wind flows in this direction relative to the isotherms
Parallel
A Frontal Jet Stream can meander up and down with these changes
Heights of the Tropopause
Anvil tops of CB's spread out at the Troposphere because of this.
Temperature goes nearly Isothermal
Relative to the shape of the Isobars, CAT is characteristically found here
Along Sharp Ridges and Sharp Troughs
How would you draw a wind bard indicating a wind velocity of 75 knots?
Come up and draw
When standing with your back to the wind, in general, the cold air in a thermal wind is on this side of the flow
Left. Just like Buys Ballots Law
The name of this Jet Stream has a typical height of 37,000 feet
Polar Jet
Despite rumors, Cosmopolitan sources can confirm Taylor Swift is not on this artists new track “How Bad Do U Want Me
Lady Gaga
When crossing a Jetstream, you should make this change in flight path if you find the temperature increasing and significant turbulence is encountered.
