Session 8A Analysis and Forecasting of Mesoscale Weather Phenomena. Part I

Wednesday, 15 January 2020: 10:30 AM-12:00 PM
151A (Boston Convention and Exhibition Center)
Host: 30th Conference on Weather Analysis and Forecasting (WAF)/26th Conference on Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP)
Chair:
Andrew C. Winters, Univ. at Albany, SUNY, Department of Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences, Albany, NY

This session will be hosted by the 30th Conference on Weather Analysis and Forecasting (30WAF).  We welcome abstracts on phenomena including (but not limited to) snow-banding, drylines and associated circulations, bores, density currents, etc. -- as well as their upscale influence on the larger environment.
