Bulk wind shear is calculated by finding the vector difference between the winds at two different heights. Using the supercell wind profile you identified, calculate the 0-1 km and 0-6 km bulk wind shear values. This means we will find the difference between the surface wind (lowest wind barb on the sounding) and the speed of the wind at 1 km and 5 km. The atmospheric pressure at 1 km above sea level is typically very close to 850 mb. The pressure at 6 km above sea level is very close to 500 mb. Please calculate the 0-1 km and 0-6 km wind shear values in knots (kts). For simplicity, assume that the surface winds are due south easterly, the 850 mb winds are due southerly, and the 500 mb winds are due westerly. Show your work.
