Orage supercellulaire(HP-haute précipitation). Un orage supercellulaire est un orage qui a une très forte précipitation(pluie et grêle) et qui inclut aussi un mésocyclone. La forte précipitation enveloppe et cache le mésocyclone(et possiblement une tornade) ce qui fait son identification difficile. Les orages supercellulaires produisent aussi des vents descendants très forts. Les fortes précipitations peuvent causer des inondation soudaines et peuvent aussi produire de la très grosse grêle. 2, record 16, French, - orage%20supercellulaire%20%C3%A0%20fortes%20pr%C3%A9cipitations

Atmospheric visibility is basically a measure of how clear the air is. It is often defined in terms of a visual range (how far an observer can see) and is expressed in nautical miles, miles or kilometers. Precipitation, clouds, and air pollution can reduce atmospheric visibility by increasing the number of small particles in the air that absorb and scatter light. 4, record 17, English, - atmospheric%20visibility
Record number: 17, Textual support number: 2 CONT
... pollutants in the atmosphere can degrade visibility, especially near towns and cities. Usually visibility is affected by natural [meteorological] factors such as fog, sea salt particles or low cloud, but sometimes pollution from human activities decreases visibility by causing haze and smog. Sources of this pollution include emissions from vehicles, pollution from home fires and industrial activities. 5, record 17, English, - atmospheric%20visibility
