Abstract

The precipitation distribution associated with landfalling tropical cyclones were investigated. The first time period for each of the composites is defined as the first time that the storm exhibits a left of track (LOC) or right of track (ROC) precipitation distribution. In order to be included in any of the composites, the storm had to display a poleward component in its track, and had to pass far enough inland that precipitation measurements could be made in all quadrants of the storm. The results show that diabatically enhanced downstream ridge development can produce a more amplified trough-ridge couplet leading to more vigorous interaction.
