ABOVEGROUND THERMODYNAMIC OBSERVATIONS IN CONVECTIVE STORMS FROM BALLOONBORNE PROBES ACTING AS PSEUDO-LAGRANG IAN DRIFTERS: Critical, hard-to-get observations in severe thunderstorms are obtained via a novel use of balloonborne probes

ABSTRACT The severe storms research community lacks reliable, aboveground, thermodynamic observations (e.g., temperature, humidity, and pressure) in convective storms. These missing observations are crucial to understanding the behavior of both [...]
