Hullo,
I hope this is acceptable to ask as a non-specific storm-related question.
Intrigued by the way my last question developed into an interesting discussion of many areas, I'm curious - are there common storm misconceptions which tend to catch novices like myself and, critically, which novices tend not know enough to ask questions about? I'm envisaging the scenario that I am standing in front of a storm watching with some awe and trying to understand what I'm seeing.
The distinction between an inflow-jet and convergence would be the key interesting point that hit me from the previous (striations on supercells) discussion. Are there other terms which are commonly misunderstood, or major visual-observation traps which frequently trap novice storm enthusiasts?
Thanks in advance for any education!
Tim
