El Niño tends to have its strongest impacts on hurricanes forming in the deep tropics, so, Caribbean storms tend to really get knocked down in El Niño years, due to increases in vertical wind shear. – Phil Klotzbach	Found on CNN 1 year ago
One reason for( the) reduction in Atlantic seasonal hurricane forecast from Colorado State University is due to development of below-normal sea surface temperatures in subtropical Atlantic, when the subtropical Atlantic is cooler than normal, it can sometimes favor increased shear in the tropical Atlantic. – Phil Klotzbach	Found on CNN 1 year ago
The models are generally forecasting a more conducive pattern for the Atlantic by the time that we get to the middle of August, air is forecast to more consistently rise over Africa and sink over the tropical Pacific. This pattern should result in reduced vertical wind shear. – Phil Klotzbach	Found on CNN 1 year ago
Other factors are more important for Gulf hurricanes, wind shear, mid-level moisture and having pre-existing disturbances that develop once they reach the Gulf( or track into the Gulf from elsewhere). Of course, if all those conditions are already there and the waters are warmer than normal, that could certainly exacerbate issues. – Phil Klotzbach	Found on CNN 1 year ago
Because the storms were incredibly shallow, that limited the growth of the parent supercell, which is why so little precipitation was falling, fully formed supercells have a much better ability to harness the low-level shear into the atmosphere in order to produce a tornado. – Kyle Thiem	Found on CNN 2 years ago
We never know what we're going to find, yet we always have to be thinking two or three steps ahead. So that really makes us need to think about the meteorology [ in each particular storm ], is it a closed low or an open wave ? Maybe it's closed but just elongated ? Is it battling shear ? Are there several smaller swirls competing to be the main circulation center ? Weak storms and invests can be very tricky and require a lot of thinking on our toes. – Jeremy DeHart	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Climatologically, what ends your hurricane season is too much wind shear, so La Niña tends to prolong the hurricane season since it tends to reduce shear, of course, last year is an example of La Niña prolonging the season... on steroids. – Phil Klotzbach	Found on CNN 2 years ago

A lot of that is going to depend on where the surface low moves and how far north the warm front gets, the primary threat is going to be damaging winds. There will be some threat for hail. There is enough shear, so we can't rule out the possibility of tornadoes, but the primary threat will be damaging winds. – Matt Sena	Found on CNN 3 years ago
Vertical wind shear is extremely critical for hurricanes in the Atlantic, strong vertical wind shear, the change in wind direction with height, tears apart hurricanes and disrupts their intensification. – Phil Klotzbach	Found on CNN 3 years ago
Though Gross waited until the end of Dr. Shear's presentation, and Though Gross went up to Though Gross, and Though Gross said Though Gross knew someone who seemed to fit the condition described in the presentation. Columbia University Shear was kind enough to say,' Well, why don't you have Though Gross call me ?' i went in to see Columbia University Shear. I filled out a lot of forms, and I filled out a form called' The Inventory of Complicated Grief,' on which I scored incredibly high. – Stephanie Muldbergs	Found on CNN 5 years ago

The tornadoes are being caused by supercell storms that are being driven by the strong wind shear. – Chris Broyles	Found on Reuters 6 years ago
I showed up on Friday, which is tape day, i showed up to my dressing room and my name was n’t on the door. It was someone else’s name. I was walking around and everyone was kind of avoiding me. And finally, someone said, ‘ Well, when you were n’t here for dress rehearsal, Rhonda Shear kisses Henry Winkler flipped out and Rhonda Shear kisses Henry Winkler took the girl that was standing in for you, made her a Screen Actors Guild member immediately and hired her. ’ I was shocked … [ That person ] said, ‘ He’s the star. He has the power.' I was mortified. I was crying. – Rhonda Shear	Found on FOX News 6 years ago
The hurricane remains in a very favorable environment for further intensification, including low vertical wind shear, deep moist unstable air and warm water. – Dan Kottlowski	Found on FOX News 6 years ago
Rain is one thing, but if a pilot gets into wind shear and the currents are there, it will literally just push your aircraft onto the ground. There have been some incidents where aircraft have crashed when making their final approach. – Phil Seymour	Found on CNN 8 years ago
When dust veils like this occur, they tend to put a lid on atmospheric convection over areas favorable for tropical storm development, add to this the impact of the El Nio, which favors stronger-than-average winds across the Atlantic basin-- which tend to shear apart any rising motion -- and you have a recipe for a below-average hurricane season. – David Robinson	Found on FOX News 8 years ago
In an earthquake, a construction platform floating on a buffer medium may experience greatly reduced shear forces, in a flood, a construction platform floating on a buffer medium can be configured to rise as water levels rise to limit flood damage. – The Arx Pax patent	Found on FOX News 8 years ago
It is the part of a good shepherd to shear his flock, not to skin it. – Latin Proverb	added by anonymous 14 years ago
