convection

The mountains trap hot air and circulate the heat like a convection oven.

During the visit to Bush’s Corona showroom, a handful of prospective customers perused neat aisles of mostly stainless steel equipment gleaming under florescent lights: refrigerators, convection ovens, steam kettles, fryers, griddles, blast freezers, ice machines, stoves, broilers, mixers, coffee makers, dishware, utensils, tables, chairs, and more.

Bush, for example, recently listed a Montague Co. convection oven for $9,500 — far below its original price of roughly $21,000.

"Yes, more water vapor in the air can foster stronger convection, but a tornado is a very local feature and requires a very specific set of meteorological conditions, such as the right wind shear."

The analysis revealed that a type of convection similar to what is seen on Earth helps maintain Jupiter's storms, which can be thousands of miles wide and last for years.
