Book Synopsis Meteorological Analysis of the Johnstown, Pennsylvania, Flash Flood, 19-20 July 1977 by : Lee R. Hoxit
Download or read book Meteorological Analysis of the Johnstown, Pennsylvania, Flash Flood, 19-20 July 1977 written by Lee R. Hoxit and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synoptic and mesoscale analyses of the meteorological conditions that produced disastrous flash flooding in the Johnstown, PA., region on July 19-20, 1977, are presented. Detailed rainfall analyses based on surface rain gauges, National Weather Service (NWS) radar, and satellite rainfall estimation techniques are also shown. Dynamic processes associated with a weak short-wave trough triggered and maintained widespread thunderstorm activity over Pennsylvania and New York during the afternoon and evening of July 19. Two major squall lines moved across Pennsylvania. The western extension of the outflow boundary produced by the second squall line became quasi-stationary in western Pennsylvania, and appeared to be the primary feature that focused the heavy rainfall over a relatively small region. Warm, moist air was lifted over the rain-cooled air lying north and east of the boundary, triggering new storms in the same general region. The storms repeatedly moved southeastward over the Conemaugh River Basin, producing 8- to 9-h rainfalls of up to 12 in.

Download or read book Acts of God written by Ted Steinberg and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-07-20 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the waters of the Mississippi River and Lake Pontchartrain began to pour into New Orleans, people began asking the big question--could any of this have been avoided? How much of the damage from Hurricane Katrina was bad luck, and how much was poor city planning? Steinberg's Acts of God is a provocative history of natural disasters in the United States. This revised edition features a new chapter analyzing the failed response to Hurricane Katrina, a disaster Steinberg warned could happen when the book first was published. Focusing on America's worst natural disasters, Steinberg argues that it is wrong to see these tragedies as random outbursts of nature's violence or expressions of divine judgment. He reveals how the decisions of business leaders and government officials have paved the way for the greater losses of life and property, especially among those least able to withstand such blows--America's poor, elderly, and minorities. Seeing nature or God as the primary culprit, Steinberg explains, has helped to hide the fact that some Americans are simply better able to protect themselves from the violence of nature than others. In the face of revelations about how the federal government mishandled the Katrina calamity, this book is a must-read before further wind and water sweep away more lives. Acts of God is a call to action that needs desperately to be heard.
