Isentropic Analysis of a Dry Line Bulge and the Real Weather Implications By Mark L. Bogner Assistant Chief Meteorologist KSNW-TV, Wichita
Already Known About Dry Line Bulges develop when short wave comes out Dry line may surge as well Favored area for severe weather development Especially just along and north of the axis of the bulge
An Orientation to the KSN Look of Isentropic Analysis
Dry Line Forecast By NAM in June of 06
Area of Maximum Downglide
Area of Maximum Upglide
Final Points Important to check MANY levels to find the effective layer Watch the ISENTROPIC wind field along the boundary Upglide forcing results in rapid destabilization and/or cap erosion
