Thermals Forecast with Temps

arXiv:2211.00695

Abstract

This paper describes a simple method for estimating the strength of a thermal updraft from a Temp (i.e., a SkewT, Emagram, or similar) showing the temperature and dew point profile of the lower atmosphere. The data of the Temp can come from relevant weather models or from radiosondes.
