At Whiffle we like small-scale weather phenomena 🔎 And we like it even better to simulate small-scale weather phenomena. But we like it best if our own Whiffle LES model accurately simulates a particular small-scale weather phenomenon 🙌 Therefore, this particular movie of a simulation of the famous 'Levanter cloud' over Gibraltar made our day 🤩 It seemed quite accurate if you compare it with this movie https://lnkd.in/dvh_QHR7. A nice description of the phenomenon can be found here: https://lnkd.in/duxGR8TV Oh, and yes, we realize that this is not a high-impact weather event. But exploring the exotic corners of meteorology teaches us about how our model captures certain physics, so therefore we do it. PS: Indeed, it was of course Peter Baas who made the movie again 🙏
