daily maximum instability
to 14 hours weakening of instability
Basic information:
Theoretical instability up to 2800 meters but limited by clouds to 2500 meters. Thermals will be terminated by convective clouds, because instability is undergoing convection. In the area of convection, the temperature can be below the freezing point and therefore ice crystals can form at this height. Thermal activity is estimated from 9 am until sunset.
Daily maximum instability:Instability maximum up to approximately 2500m.
Weakening of instability:By 2 pm, the gradient above 1800 meters will be significantly weaker and may in extreme cases stop the thermal. From 2 pm, the thermals will be without slowing down or interruption until convection.
Thermals will be rather calm.
