THE EASTERN MISSOURI SLEET STORM OF 29-30 DECEMBER 1990: A DIAGNOSTIC ANALYSIS
Those physical mechanisms responsible for an extended period of sleet over eastern Missouri during 29-30 December 1990 are investigated. The post-frontal precipitation pattern is shown to be the result of a direct thermal circulationforced by Jrontogenesis along an arctic front. This circulation was...
