Abstract:Based on observations meteorological data and NCEP/NCAR 1°×1° reanalysis data, the meso-scale weather comprehensive analysis was used to configure the weather situation of 65 severe convective weather processes occurred in central and western Zhejiang in warm seasons (April to October) from 2008 to 2018. The regular characteristics of thunderstorm, gale, hail, short-term heavy precipitation and mixed strong convection occurred in central and western Zhejiang were obtained. The conclusions are:(1) there are five basic synoptic situation configurations of severe convection in central and western Zhejiang, that is, dry and cold advection type (6.2%), frontogenesis and shear type (13.8%), warm and wet advection type (38.5%), the edge of subtropical high type (30.7%), and typhoon periphery type (10.8%), moreover, main physical mechanism and meso-scale characteristics of each conceptual model are provided. (2) The typical severe convective weather events are analyzed under different conceptual models to make a conclusion of the evolution features of occurrence, development and reduction, so that the abstract conceptual model applied. (3) The threshold ranges of different severe convective in different flow patterns is analyzed, such as the average Iw index is 26.1 m·s-1, the temperature difference between 850 hPa and 500 hPa can reach 27.5℃,and the relative humidity at 500 hPa is only 15%, which distinguish the different identification methods under similar circulation conditions and provide a quantitative reference index.
