What is Upshear?

Quick Reference. Opposite to the direction of maximum vertical wind shear, generally relative to the main convective circulation (i.e. updraught). When wind shear is present, cumulus clouds, for example, exhibit upshear tilt.

On which side of a cold pool is deep lifting enhanced?

downshear side
The enhanced lifting leads to enhanced cell regeneration along the downshear side of the cold pool. Shear above 2.5 km also enhances lifting along the downshear side of cold pool.

What does Downshear and Upshear mean?

Up vs Down Shear Router Bits The major differences between up and down shear bits are the chip evacuation rate and the finish quality. Up shear bits are used for faster feed rates and deeper holes where chip evacuation is key (although multiple passes are still suggested for deep holes and mortising).

What is a Downshear router bit?

1/2″SH, 3/4″CD, 2″CL. Flush trim bits cut the wood on your project so that it is flush with the template edge. The downshear cutting edge moves the chips away from the router.

What is low vertical wind shear?

Low-level jet streams. When a nocturnal low-level jet forms overnight above Earth’s surface ahead of a cold front, significant low-level vertical wind shear can develop near the lower portion of the low-level jet. This is also known as non-convective wind shear as it is not due to nearby thunderstorms.

What does wind shear do?

Wind shear describes how the wind changes speed and/or direction with height. There is almost always some degree of wind shear present within the atmosphere: however, it tends to be much greater across central Illinois during the winter and spring when strong storm systems frequently impact the region.

How do I report wind shear?

Reporting Procedure If significant wind shear is encountered during the takeoff and initial climb, or on approach and landing, it should be reported to air traffic control immediately.

How high is a mesocyclone?

A mesocyclone is a rotating part of a thunderstorm or more technically the storm-scale region of rotation. This area can range up to 2-6 miles but EF4 and EF5 mesocyclones can be 6-10+ miles in diameter. Mesocyclones exist in the strongest and most dangerous thunderstorms called supercells.
