Anyways with the parade of MCSs the last couple of days/nights (esp here in KS), thought I would share some meteorological info on MCSs, their formation, and propogation. I came across this bit of info a year or so ago during a similar stretch of events. Its a ppt presention that explains everything you ever wanted to know about the LLJ and MCSs. Its explained about as basic as possible but even at that, there is some degree of meteorology involved that not everyone will know.
Heres the link..hope those of you in the the Plains that have been going thru what I have been going thru the last week will find this useful.
