Severe Convective Storms

Severe Convective Storms is a type of mesoscale convective system characterized by the presence of at least one of the following hazardous phenomena: hail with a diameter of 2.5 cm or larger, surface wind gusts exceeding 25 m/s, or the occurrence of tornadoes, thereby distinguishing it from ordinary convective storms through its capacity to produce significant damage and threat to life and property.
