4 Panel Display | Animated Loop CAPE This is a surface based Convective Available Potential Energy (CAPE) measurement only. In the cool season, elevated instability may be much higher than surface based cape. On average, CAPE of 1000 J/Kg is usually sufficient for strong to severe storms. CAPE of 3,000 to 4,000 J/Kg or higher is usually a signal of a very volatile atmosphere that could produce severe storms if other environmental parameters are in place.
