The recent period of convective activity has seen numerous episodes of elevated convection, providing frequent lightning and substantial local rainfall amounts. However, my level of understanding about convective dynamics is very basic, especially with regards to elevated convection. My struggles often evolve understanding forecasted 'Soundings' (GFS), and using this as a predictive tool. This thread is intended to provide an area where those whom understand the dynamics of elevated convection can help guide enthusiastic learners on this forum, by sharing explanations and literature on the topic. I recall 'Skew T's' has been discussed on a broad scale in previous threads, though a more detailed breakdown in there use in forecasting elevated outbreaks would also be very helpful!
Any responses would be greatly appreciated by me, and I suspect many others on this great forum.
*Please can this thread stay formal in tone, it is intended as an area for learning (not chit chatter about storm prospects)!
