DARKNESS ENVELOPSTrapped NWConvergence in High Pressure
Trapped NW
Previous Image | Next Image
Description: Here the Nor Wester cloud was so low down that it failed to make the uplift, colliding with our hills, and it rained like hell in the process. Cause was a cold Southerly blasting out above the NW, trapping it. That causes so much trouble here, as westerly versus westerly from either side of NZ, with us smack bang in the firing line. A continual line of small funnel clouds and little tornadoes with much black scud ensued over Paekakariki after this. The white foggy stuff is salt spray ex the trapped westerly.
