Fw: Sounding report at Sipora (December 1)

Dear All,

We started 3-hourly radiosonde observation at Sipora from 00Z of December 1.

# I attach the photo of 1st observation (00Z).

It has been very windy and rainy conditions. Wind speed was above 15m/s
around 1km height (northeasterly to westerly). Moderate and/or weak rain
(without thunder) continues almost whole a day.

- Sonde observational reports for December 1, 2011

(Observational members)
00Z-12Z: Iyang (BPPT), Bambang (BMKG Tabing) (Hamada (JAMSTEC), monitor)
12Z-21Z: Hamada, Riris (TPI Sipora), Tanoue (Kumamoto Univ.)

(Observational time, weather conditions, maximum height)

00Z: 1st, cloudy (overcast), 4.860km
    2nd, rain (overcast), 4.934km

03Z: 1st, rain (overcast), 4.774km
    2nd, rain (overcast), 19.734km

# Vertical speed of the balloons (00Z 2nd, 03Z 1st) were about 0m/s to
-2m/s around 4-5km height in rain clouds, though we added more buoyancy
force than clear case. Thus, the observation were automatically
terminated because of increasing pressure.

06Z: cloudy (overcast), 20.815km

09Z: rain (overcast), 20.531km

12Z: rain (overcast), 16.855km

15Z: 1st, miss launch. The transmitter hit a electricity cable.
    2nd, slightly rain (overcast), 17.502km

# One transmitter could not be used (GPS sensor problem)

18Z: slightly rain (overcast), 18.604km

21Z: slightly rain (overcast), 19.593km

Re: MJO is approaching Sumatera

It is very interesting that some smaller hierarchies in SCS
are clearly along the coastline, which should be a result
of combination with diurnal cycle.
If there is any intermediate scale (around a few days) between
DC and SCS, it makes a day-to-day shift of rainfall peak at a
station as I have shown in a simple calculation a few days ago.

Re: MJO is approaching Sumatera

Dear Mori-san:

Thank for sending us the present status of our weather and climate at the beginning phase of our iop.

I believe the evidence of mjo and the cause such as pln black out last night at muara putus due to tropical cyclone and nocturnal heavy rainfall over west sumatra from few days ago until recently
Will be a very good data for our iop. We are just eyeing this important evidence when mjo touching sumatra.

Keep working good on iop but do not forget to keep our health and safety as well.

Best,
Fadli
Ps. The NBA flight from sipora island had been canceled on last thursday for Major Gentio return to Padang. No regular ship is also in operation there, so that he will a few day trapped in sipora until he could be back to padang when the weather back to normal. I am very sorry to disturb his busy schedule.

MJO is approaching Sumatera

I believe everyone has noticed that a MJO is approaching Sumatera right now.

This is a GSMaP rainfall distribution observed from space. You can find
a synoptic precipitating system was identified at the eastern end of the
Indian Ocean and we had much rainfall in Padang last few days though the
MJO itself stays in th sector 3 shown in the RMM analysis. This is a
"typical?" characteristics which Hamada-san has pointed out in his paper
(has it already published?).

Let's keep our watch at wonderful events in each site!

Thank you.
