INTRODUCTION

AIM UTILISATION OF THE DWR IMAGES FOR NOWCASTING OF THUNDERSTORM/DUST STORMS DURING PRE-MONSOON AND SW MONSOON SEASON

AEROSTAT SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED METEOROLOGICAL EQUIPMENTS AUTOMATIC WEATHER STATION (AWS) WIND PROFILER THUNDERSTORM SENSOR AND ELECTRIC FIELD MILL DOPPLER WEATHER RADAR

OPERATING LIMITATIONS DUE TO WEATHER WIND SPEED GUSTING TURBULENCE LIGHTENING THUNDERSTORM DUST DEVILS PRECIPITATION

SPECIFICATIONS AND WORKING PRINCIPLE

MODES OF OPERATIONS WEATHER (Wx) MODE WEATHER PLUS TURBULENCE (Wx + T) MODE TURBULENCE (T) MODE

PRODUCTS GENERATED THROUGH DWR STANDARD METEOROLOGICAL PRODUCTS EXTENDED METEOROLOGICAL PRODUCTS HYDROLOGICAL PRODUCTS WIND SHEAR DETECTION PRODUCTS PHENOMENA DETECTION PRODUCT AVIATION PRODUCT RAW DATA PRE-PROCESSING

METHODOLOGY AND DATA USED CONTINUES HALF HOURLY BARNALA RADAR IMAGES OF 2008 DURING PR-MONSOON AND SW MONSOON COMPARISON WITH ACTUAL TIME OBSERVATION NWP PRODUCTS GENERATED WITH 1200 UTC INITIAL CONDITIONS AT AFCNWP (MM5 MODEL VERSION 3.7.2)

CASE STUDY 15-16 APR 08

ANALYSIS OF DWR IMAGERIES TIME (UTC) LOCATION OF ECHO 1411 OVER PAKISTAN, ABOUT 20 NM SE OF SARGODHA 1511 ECHO MOVED SLIGHTLY EASTWARDS 1626 ANOTHER ECHO WAS SEEN ALONG THE INTERNATIONAL BORDER, ABOUT 60-70 NM WEST OF BARNALA 1711 -1811 2-3 SIGNIFICANT ECHOES WERE OBSERVED MOVING TOWARDS NORTHEAST, AFFECTING WEATHER OVER PATHANKOT, AMRITSAR AND ADAMPUR 1906 SIGNIFICANT ECHO WAS OBSERVED BETWEEN 50-60 NM TO THE NORTHEAST OF BARNALA 1906 - 2203 FRESH ECHOES FORMED AND MOVED TOWARDS NORTHEAST, AFFECTING WEATHER OVER PATHANKOT, ADAMPUR, HALWARA AND BATHINDA

DWR IMAGES FROM BARNALA ON 15-16 APRIL 2008

OBSERVED WEATHER

ANALYSIS OF NWP PRODUCTS

VERTICAL PROFILE OF VERTICAL VELOCITY AND RELATIVE HUMIDITY

PREDICTED AND OBSERVED STRONGEST WIND

WIND SPEED IN LOWER LEVELS

PREDICTED AND OBSERVED STRONGEST WIND

SIMULATED COMPOSITE REFLECTIVITY

FORECAST RAINFALL PATTERN

INFERENCES RADAR IMAGES GAVE VERY RELIABLE INDICATION MESO-SCALE NWP MODELS CAN BE UTILISED VERTICAL PROFILES OF VERTICAL MOTION AND RELATIVE HUMIDITY INDICATE THE POSSIBLE TIME FRAME PREDICTED AMOUNT OF RAINFALL MAY NOT ALWAYS BE RELIABLE

CONCLUSION DWR IS A VERY GOOD TOOL TO TRACK THE MOVEMENT MESO-SCALE NWP MODELS ARE CAPABLE OF GENERATING RELIABLE INDICATIONS INTEGRATION OF BOTH THE INPUTS CAN INCREASE THE ACCURACY AND RELIABILITY RADAR ECHOES ARE SENSITIVE TO THE SEASONS

CRITICAL APPRECIATION STUDY IS CARRIED OUT ONLY FOR PRE-MONSOON AND SW MONSOON, HOWEVER NW INDIA WEATHER IS ALSO AFFECTED DURING POST-MONSOON. THE CASES ARE NOT CONSIDERED MORE CASE SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN INTO CONSIDARATION AS PER AUTHOR ONLY HALF HOURLY IMAGES ARE AVAILABLE, BUT THE IMAGES ARE AVAILABLE IN REAL TIME
