SAMRA 14 Flashcards

1
Q

Rain falling but before get to ground…

A

Call it VIRGA, could have dry microburst.

-They can often be identified by the presence of “virga”
-They are linked with high-based cumulus and Altocumulus type clouds
-with this type of microburst, evaporative cooling intensifies the downdrafts
