I am McKenzie Larson, and I study Colorado Front Range weather.
I investigate the characteristics of Central U.S. lee cyclones via machine learning to better understand and forecast these impactful storms. I also use weather and climate models to explore how Colorado Front Range downslope windstorms may change in a future climate.
