Climatological prediction of cumulonimbus clouds in the vicinity of the Yucca Flat Weather Station / R.F. Quiring

"The objective of this report is to collect climatological information relating to the occurrence and prediction of cumulonimbus clouds (CB) in the vicinity of the Yucca Flat Weather Station in a single document for ready reference. The annual and daiIy cycles are first described in terms of relative frequency, i.e., the empirical equivalent of probabiIity expressed either as a percentage or decimal fraction. This is followed by a look at the persistence of days with CB activity and an evaluation of the predictive value of various climatological indices"--Introduction.
