Radar Precipitation/Vertical Wind StructureConceptual Summary of Convective Burst A developing storm that may have intensified from a convective burst. CAMEX-3: Convective Burst in Hurricane Bonnie 2

A storm with a convective burst that didn’t intensify since vertical wind shear, i.e., the variation of winds with height, was too large. Above: Typical analysis with radar and other data sets. Right: Conceptualization of structure of storm. CAMEX-4 Tropical Storm Chantal 3
