    Description: The thermodynamic, microphysical, and kinematic structures of microburst-producing showers are studied based on JAWS measurements. A simple model of an evaporatively driven downdraft is used to assess the role of precipitation evaporation in microburst formation. The results suggest that subcloud evaporation is the predominant microburst-forcing mechanism in the cases studied. The occurrence of strong downdrafts corresponded to three conditions: (1) a deep, dry adiabatic layer below cloud base, (2) a large concentration of small precipitation particles near cloud base, and (3) low relative humidity values in the descending parcel.
