This is a list of meso-gamma mesoscale discussions, which are issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Storm Prediction Center during high-confidence and high-impact severe weather events.
The Storm Prediction Center ( SPC) is a US government agency that is part of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP), operating under the control of the National Weather Service (NWS), [1] which in turn is part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) of the United States Department of Commerce (DoC).

The Storm Prediction Center's Day 1 convective outlook for May 21, 2024, issued at 1300Z, indicating a moderate risk for severe weather over much of Iowa and nearby parts of Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, and southeastern Minnesota.
As of May 21, the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has tallied 317 storm spotter reports in the United States of hail larger than 2 inches in diameter (a golf ball is 1.75 inches).If that sounds like ...
Mesoscale meteorology. Mesoscale meteorology is the study of weather systems and processes at scales smaller than synoptic-scale systems but larger than microscale and storm-scale. Horizontal dimensions generally range from around 5 kilometres (3 mi) to several hundred kilometers. Examples of mesoscale weather systems are sea breezes, squall ...
NOAA's Storm Prediction Center releases daily convective outlooks highlighting the areas with the greatest potential for severe thunderstorms.
According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Storm Prediction Center, there are expected to be some strong tornadoes and “damaging thunderstorm winds” and large
NOAA's Hazardous Weather Testbed (HWT) is jointly managed by NSSL, the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) and the National Weather Service Oklahoma City/Norman Weather Forecast Office (OUN) on the University of Oklahoma campus inside the National Weather Center. The HWT is designed to accelerate the transition of promising new meteorological ...
