Shortwave (meteorology) Shortwave trough with associated vorticity. A shortwave or shortwave trough is an embedded kink in the trough / ridge pattern. Its length scale is much smaller than that of and is embedded within longwaves, which are responsible for the largest scale ( synoptic scale) weather systems. Shortwaves may be contained within ...
2013's Tropical Storm Dorian as a tropical wave just north of Puerto Rico on July 29, 2013. A tropical wave (also called easterly wave, tropical easterly wave, and African easterly wave), in and around the Atlantic Ocean, is a type of atmospheric trough, an elongated area of relatively low air pressure, oriented north to south, which moves from east to west across the tropics, causing areas of ...
The February 2021 North American cold wave was an extreme weather event that brought record low temperatures to a significant portion of Canada, the United States and parts of northern Mexico during the first two-thirds of February 2021. The cold was caused by a southern migration of the polar vortex, likely caused by a sudden stratospheric ...
A heat wave (or heatwave), sometimes described as extreme heat, is a period of abnormally hot weather. [3] : 2911 Definitions vary but are similar. [4] A heat wave is usually measured relative to the usual climate in the area and to normal temperatures for the season.
Swell (ocean) A swell, also sometimes referred to as ground swell, in the context of an ocean, sea or lake, is a series of mechanical waves that propagate along the interface between water and air under the predominating influence of gravity, and thus are often referred to as surface gravity waves. These surface gravity waves have their origin ...
A wake low, or wake depression, is a mesoscale low-pressure area which trails the mesoscale high following a squall line. [1] Due to the subsiding warm air associated with the system's formation, clearing skies are associated with the wake low. Once difficult to detect in surface weather observations due to their broad spacing, the formation of ...
