Industry:Weather
The temperature beyond which rocks and minerals become paramagnetic, which for most geophysical purposes means they are nonmagnetic.

In popular terminology, any sudden and heavy fall of rain, almost always of the shower type. An unofficial criterion sometimes used specifies a rate of fall equal to or greater than 100 mm (3. 94 inches) per hour. See excessive precipitation.

A smoothed representation of a time series derived by replacing each observed value with a mean value computed over a selected interval. For example, if the observations are of daily maximum temperature and the selected interval is five days, then the value assigned to 5 February is the mean of the daily maxima from 3 through 7 February, etc. Consecutive means are used in smoothing to eliminate unwanted periodicities or minimize irregular variations.

Industry:Weather
A region of negative buoyancy below an existing level of free convection (LFC) where energy must be supplied to the parcel to maintain its ascent. This tends to inhibit the development of convection until some physical mechanism can lift a parcel to its LFC. The intensity of the cap is measured by its convective inhibition. The term capping inversion is sometimes used, but an inversion is not necessary for the conditions producing convective inhibition to exist.

North to east winds in Romania, especially a cold boralike wind characteristic of the climate of Romania. Crivetz may occur at any season, but is least frequent in June and July. See austru.
