Analysis of a Large-Scale Strong Convective Weather under a Weak Water Vapor Condition in Shanxi, China in Spring

This article uses NCEP 1° × 1° grid point reanalysis data, conventional meteorological observation data, FY2G satellite TBB data, radar combined reflectivity data, ground-encrypted automatic station observation data, etc., through the synoptic diagnostic analysis method for a comprehensive analysis of a large-scale underreporting of a strong convective weather process under weak water vapor conditions on the 13th April 2017. The results show that the severe convective weather process is affected by the short-wave disturbance in the northwesterly airflow, triggered by the uplift of the westerly trough, the mid-low shear line and the mesoscale front of the boundary layer in the dry northwest. The jet stream is also an important system for the development of this strong convective weather. In the case of weak water vapor and energy conditions, if there is strong dynamic uplift, vertical wind shear and large temperature differences, strong convection can still occur; the convection occurrence area corresponds to the high potential vorticity abnormal area. The movement speed and direction of the cloud cluster are also consistent with the movement of the high potential vorticity anomaly area; the potential vorticity anomaly will cause the cyclonic circulation to increase, and the upward movement will also increase, which is conducive to the development of strong convective weather. According to the position of the dew point front in the β mesoscale, the ground cold pool corresponds to the small value area of the convective cloud cluster TBB. The front of the cold pool is accompanied by a mesoscale ground convergence line, and the uplift is
