What will I learn?
This course equips you with essential tools for understanding and forecasting fast-changing coastal weather. Explore lower-troposphere thermodynamics, stability analysis, CAPE calculations, and skew-T log-P diagrams. Advance to upper-air dynamics, including jet streams, frontogenesis, and vertical motion diagnostics. Apply real observational data, reanalysis products like ERA5, and structured workflows to interpret weather maps and produce reliable forecast messages and alerts.
