<br />the base of the cloud deck or rooist layer (fig. 31), and the top of the <br />moist layer (fig. 32). The surface wind speeds and the cloud base <br />wind speeds follow the same pattern with the highest speeds on an axis. <br />from northern Texas to eastern Nebraska. Cloud top wind speeds <br />(fig. 32) are about 11 m sec-l across most of the High Plains with a <br />maximum at Fort Worth, Texas, of 13.9 m sec-I. <br /> <br />UPSLOPE' 'SEEDABLE' SITUATIONS <br /> <br /> <br />Surface Wind Speed (meters/see) <br /> <br />Figure 30: Mean surface wind <br />speed {meters/second} averaged <br />over all directions for seedable <br />upslope episodes. <br /> <br />UPSLOPE' 'SEEDABLE' SITUATIONS <br />:4 5 6 <br /> <br /> <br />Moist Layer Base <br /> <br />Wind Speed (meters/see) <br /> <br />Figure 31: Mean aloud base wind <br />speed {meters/second} averaged <br />over all directions for seedable <br />upslope episodes. <br /> <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />34 <br />
