Entry: Best (4-layer) lifted index

URI: https://codes.nws.noaa.gov/StatPP/Data/Met/Stability/LIBest4Lyr

Best (4-layer) lifted index. This is computed by first computing LI for parcels lifted from the middle of multiple pre-determined boundary layer levels and then choosing the most unstable value.The number 4 in the name seems to be historic. Modern algorithms seem to use more than four layers.
