rain-bearing

In addition, rain-bearing clouds shown in satellite pictures were changed from white to black.

The next set of clouds are the rain-bearing nimbostratus clouds.

These are generally rain-bearing winds, blowing from sea to land, and bring rains to most parts of the subcontinent.

The heavy, eastward-moving rain-bearing clouds are forced to rise and in the process deposit most of their rain on the windward side.

The dryness of the Dahomey Gap, due to the rain-bearing winds moving parallel to the coast.

The mountains intercept the rain-bearing westerly monsoon winds, and are consequently an area of high rainfall, particularly on their western side.

The rain-bearing monsoon clouds are attracted to the low-pressure system created by the Thar Desert.

In winter, the cyclone dissipates and the inflow of polar air to the west strengthens, causing rain-bearing depressions.

Instead of a simple wind diagram, he had 'back-projections' of the actual path of the rain-bearing wind over the previous 48 hours.

Large gaps between the southwestern cliff faces-side canyons known as rincons-were critical in funneling rain-bearing storms into the canyon and boosting local precipitation levels.

In the Dahomey Gap, however, the coast slopes in such a way (northeast to southwest) that the rain-bearing westerlies flow parallel to the coast.

But the air patterns associated with rain-bearing clouds mean that "for every particle that is uplifted by a storm, there should be many particles that are pushed down."

In coastal areas fresh water may contain significant concentrations of salts derived from the sea if windy conditions have lifted drops of seawater into the rain-bearing clouds.

Television meteorologists, three months removed from an obsession with the rain-bearing potential of incoming weather patterns, no longer speak with perky approval of chances of afternoon showers.

The climate is hot and humid, influenced by rain-bearing southwest monsoon winds from the ocean and dry northwest winds from the Sahara Desert.

This inland region is one of the driest regions in the country, sheltered from prevailing rain-bearing weather conditions by the high mountains to the west and hills of the south.

Multiple storm cells existed, one in Western Victoria and another in Central Victoria and Melbourne, other mostly rain-bearing systems passed through the state throughout the night.

Because it is located east of the Snowy Mountains, the rain-bearing westerly winds deposit rain and snow on the mountains leaving the Monaro region in a rain shadow.

This same location, though, leaves Swansea exposed to rain-bearing winds from the Atlantic: figures from the Met Office make Swansea the wettest city in Britain.

The East Deccan dry evergreen forests cover lie in the rain shadow of the Western Ghats and Eastern Ghats, which block the rain-bearing summer southwest monsoon.

Warburton is therefore more affected by the tropical rain systems from the north of Australia rather than the rain-bearing cold fronts arriving from Antarctica towards the south of Australia.

The dry, northeasterly trade winds, and their more extreme form, the harmattan, are interrupted by the northern shift in the ITCZ and resultant southerly, rain-bearing winds during the summer.

Subarctic and tundra climates prevail in north Canada and north Alaska, and desert and semiarid conditions are found in interior regions cut off by high mountains from rain-bearing westerly winds.

Very simply, persistent high pressure over eastern Australia and across to New Zealand has blocked the passage of rain-bearing low pressure systems and their associated cold fronts northward out of the Antarctic (Figure 2).

Farther south, rain-bearing clouds from the Mediterranean pass through the gap between the Jabal an Nusayriyah and the Anti-Lebanon Mountains, reaching the area of Homs and, sometimes, the steppe region east of that city.
