Squall Line Simulation

Figure 2 is a full animation from the Met Office Large Eddy Model (LEM) which has been produced by the Convection and Special process investigations groups within APR [NB: The animation is a multiple gif format of ~0.5 Mb].  The white lines outline cloud water and ice, and the colours show different types of precipitating cloud species.
