Mid level circulation and low level circulation
When looking at the IR sat can you tell the difference between mid and low level circulation? The reason why I bring this up is that Normandy said a couple of posts back in the 99L thread that it has a LLC now and last night it had a MLC. I can't tell the difference,is their a way to tell?

Re: Mid level circulation and low level circulation
Without surface obs, it's almost impossible to differentiate between a MLC and a LLC, particularly on IR imagery (with weaker systems like 99L). I remember some systems over the past years that looked like tropical storms. Recon flew in and found no LLC.

Re: Mid level circulation and low level circulation
Yes by IR Sat it is hard to tell the difference between a MLC or LLC.. That's why Observation's are a key point.. But there are some images you can see the LLC or MLC. But Boca is right....
