Hi John,

If no precipitation was possible with sub 510dm air this assumes an
inversion of sorts relatively near to the surface


Snip

Or there's simply not enough insolation to generate significant
convection.

Hi Jon,

My post wasn't clear, I was relying on SST's to trigger convection in this
hypothetical situation.
