Summer School on Mesoscale Meteorology and Predictability

This week I am at the Hyytiälä Forestry Field Station in Finland hosting a course on mesoscale meteorology. I have four distinguished lecturers from the US and Germany and about 30 students from Finland, Russia, Albania, Sweden, and China. Topics include fronts, orographic circulations and cold pools, numerical weather prediction, and convection. We are also having lectures on stable atmospheric boundary layers, orographic precipitation, atmospheric aerosol formation events, publishing your journal articles, developing your career, and the physics of sauna. I'll provide a more complete update later.
