Parametre:
Yükseltgenmiş Indeks
Tarife:

Yükseltgenmiş Indeks (LI), 500 milibara( yaklaşık 5.5000m veya 18,000 fit) ulaşan ve 500mbar’daki çevresel sıcaklık ile gerçek sıcaklığın farkı ile bulunan, yükselen hava kütlesinin sıcaklığı olarak tanımlanır. Eğer Yükseltgenmiş Indeks büyük negatif bir sayı ise, yükselen hava kütlesi etrafına oranla daha sıcaktır ve yükselmeye devam eder. Gökgürültüsü ve orajlar hızla yükselen hava ile beslenirler, bu yüzden Yükseltgenmiş Indeks atmosferin üretebileceği potansiyel yıldırım ve şimşek riski açısından iyi bir ölçektir.

NWP:
Numerical weather prediction uses current weather conditions as input into mathematical models of the atmosphere to predict the weather. Although the first efforts to accomplish this were done in the 1920s, it wasn't until the advent of the computer and computer simulation that it was feasible to do in real-time. Manipulating the huge datasets and performing the complex calculations necessary to do this on a resolution fine enough to make the results useful requires the use of some of the most powerful supercomputers in the world. A number of forecast models, both global and regional in scale, are run to help create forecasts for nations worldwide. Use of model ensemble forecasts helps to define the forecast uncertainty and extend weather forecasting farther into the future than would otherwise be possible.
