Height Contours 1000 hPa:
The height contours at 1000 hPa show a rather indistinct distribution. In contrast to the conceptual model, there is no
distinct high pressure area.
Height Contours 500 hPa:
At 500 hPa, an upper level trough area is very distinct over Spain and North Africa. However, it is not as large as would
usually be expected.
TFP:
There is no TFP characterising a front close to the Fair Weather Cb; but in this case there are several areas nearby that
have positive values of TFP. They might indicate air mass boundaries.
Equivalent Thickness:
The configuration in this parameter very clearly shows a thickness trough and confirms the conceptual model of Fair Weather
Cb.
Showalter Index:
There are negative values of Showalter index in the area of the Fair Weather Cb, representing the unstable situation there.
ΘE:
Just as equivalent thickness, the equivalent potential temperature shows an intensive ridge area representing the warm
and unstable (as seen in the Showalter index) air mass. This is a precondition for the development of a Fair Weather Cb.
