À mesure que le courant descendant s'intensifie, le flux d'air froid qui en est issu progresse dans l'air ambiant des basses couches, s'enroulant dans un mouvement cyclonique autour du centre de la circulation. À cet endroit, le flux d'air instable est concentré et rejeté en altitude par la convergence de l'air froid. [...] Le maximum de vorticité [...] est à ce moment situé près du sol à la pointe de cette méso-occlusion. J.B. Klemp et R. Rotunno ont montré [...] que ce maximum se produit en fait dans un anneau de 1 à 2 kilomètres de diamètre autour du centre de la circulation. 2, record 2, French, - tourbillon%20annulaire
