A nonhydrostatic model of atmospheric flows EULAG is set up over southern Poland on a grid with 1km horizontal resolution. The goal is to test a short-term numerical weather prediction over complicated topography with explicit treatment convective processes. Boundary and initial conditions are interpolated from routine mesoscale hydrostatic UMPL model running at 17km resolution. The case study of evolving fonvection forced by topography will be presented.
