Quick help: CAPE (Convective Available Potential Energy) is a measure of the atmospheric stability affecting deep convective cloud formation above the CBL and not inside CBL. So it is not a measure of the strength of thermals. Higher values indicates greater potential for strong thunderstorm. Thunderstorm probabilities according to CAPE values are: 0=none, 300-1000=weak, 1000-2500=moderate, 2500-5300=strong.
Aide rapide: CAPE (Convective Available Potential Energy) est une évaluation de la probabilité d'orage (instabilité au-dessus de la couche convective). Plus les valeurs sont grandes plus le risque est élevé. Comme repérage : 0=aucun risque. 300-1000=risque faible, 1000-2500=risque modéré. Au-dessus de 2500=risque élevé.
