Sc praecipitatio
/ 0 Comments / in Low Levels, StratocumulusFormation of stratocumulus clouds due to a low-level cold pool of air being warmed up from underneath by the warm Central Mediterranean Sea but inhibited from growing further by a stable layer of air above it. This is indicated in the weather sounding (first thumbnail) showing the end of instability at just 2.7km. However, the formed low-level cloud was still thick enough to produce some rain showers as seen in the background.
