Analiza ovih događaja uključila je pregled sinoptičkih karata, analizu radiosondaža s postaje Zagreb - Maksimir i praćenje prizemnih mjerenja meteoroloških parametara. Mezoskalnim numeričkim modelom WRF-HAILCAST visoke razlučivosti pokušali su se reproducirati atmosferski uvjeti tijekom odabrana dva dana, s posebnim naglaskom
... More na razvoj konvekcije i formiranje tuče. Cilj rada bilo je procijeniti koliko je uspješno model simulirao tuču i mogu li su ovi događaji zaista smatrati ekstremnima. Modelirane prostorne raspodjele tuče uspoređene su s opaženim vrijednostima tuče prikupljenim na prizemnim postajama DHMZ-a, kao i s europskom bazom podataka o opasnim vremenskim pojavama. Također, modelirani potencijal za razvoj munja uspoređen je s mjerenjima udara munja iz mreže LINET. U slučaju 25. svibnja 2022. model je ponegdje precijenio pojavu tuče, dok je je na dan 2. lipnja 2022. na nekim područjima podcijenio. Osim toga, rezultati su pokazali da je model podcijenio veličinu zrna tuče u oba slučaja. Unatoč ovim odstupanjima, kategoričke metrike su ukazivale na zadovoljavajuće rezultate, sugerirajući da je model uspješno simulirao uvjete za razvoj konvekcije i formiranje tuče. Less Abstract (english) In this study, the WRF-HAILCAST model was used to simulate two (extreme) hail events that occurred in 2022 in the northwest region of Croatia. The analysis of these events included a review of synoptic charts, an examination of radiosonde profiles from the Zagreb - Maksimir station, and the monitoring of surface meteorological parameter measurements. The high-resolution mesoscale numerical model WRF-HAILCAST was used to recreate the atmospheric conditions during the chosen two days, with a
... More specific emphasis on the evolution of convection and the formation of hail. The objective of this study was to evaluate the model’s ability to accurately simulate hail events and determine the extent to which these events could be classified as extreme. Simulated spatial distributions of hail were compared to observed hail reports collected from the Croatian Meteorological and Hydrological Service’s surface stations, as well as with a European Severe Weather Database. Furthermore, the simulated potential for lightning activity was compared to lightning data provided by LINET network. On 25 May 2022, the model overestimated the occurrence of hail in specific areas, whereas on 2 June 2022, it underestimated hail events in certain regions. Furthermore, the results indicated that the model underestimated hailstone size in both cases. Despite these deviations, verification measures suggested satisfactory results, indicating that the model successfully simulated the conditions for development of convection and the formation of hail.
