| Description | A detailed study has been made of the severe Oahu rainstorm of 19 April 1974 and its implications for the Hawaii flood forecast problem. Conventional meteorological analyses were performed, using standard surface observations, aircraft reports, and satellite photography. Data from Oahu’s extensive recording rain gage network were analyzed to determine the mesoscale structure of precipitating cloud systems. Conceptual models of the flood-producing convective elements were then constructed.... U.S. Department of the Interior Grant Agreement No. 14-34-0001-6012 OWRT Project No. A-062-HI |
