Abstract:Using the data of Jiangxi WebGIS radar mosaic, automatic station rainfall, lightning monitoring, severe weather monitoring and MICAPS conventional weather map data, this paper analyzes the radar echo characteristics of 26 rainstorm processes in 11 districts and cities in Jiangxi during the flood season from March to July, 2017. The results show that there are 52 rainstorm processes in the flood season of Jiangxi in 2017, among which 26 rainstorm processes occur in the urban areas of 11 districts and cities. Twenty-three out of twenty-six rainstorm processes in urban area are accompanied by short-term strong precipitation and 3 were accompanied by relatively uniform precipitation. The rainstorm duration ovaries, with the longest lasting 15 hours and the shortest lasting 3 hours, averaging 10 hours. Strong wind occurred for five times. There are mainly three kinds of radar echo characteristics:blocky (strong monomer, super monomer), banded (squall line, echo band), flocculent (flocculent band, flocculent dough). The flocculent echo occurs most frequently among the three echo characteristics, The flocculent echo is a wide echo band embedded with convective monomer with moderate intensity of 40-55 dBz, appearing 16 times, with a probability of 62%. It is followed by a squall line echo band, which is narrow, long and closely arranged and composed of strong monomers, with an intensity ranging from 50 dBz to 60 dBz, appearing eight times with a probability of 30%. Blocky (strong monomer, super monomer) echo has the strongest intensity, with the center intensity reaching 60-70 dBz, appearing twice, with a probability of 8%.
