Brief Cloud Synopsis

July 26, 1998:

Cirrus cloud from 00:00-04:00 at 8-10 km AGL. Convective system moves in over area beginning with cirrus at 12:30 (9-11 km AGL). Cloud gradually deepens and begins raining at 23:00 with tops still near 11 km AGL. The lidar detects a low cloud below 200 m AGL which the radar doesn't detect between 03:30-06:30 and 17:00-19:00. Microwave radiometer shows very little liquid until just before precipitation begins.
