The morphology of MCS cloud shield is obtained from thermal infrared brightness temperatures measured by geostationary satellites and a detection and tracking algorithm as done classically50,51. Here we use the Tracking Of Organized Convection Algorithm through a 3D segmentatioN (TOOCAN) algorithm33. ...
Two alternative convective initiation climatologies are generated using SCIT data from a neighboring radar installation and output from a novel storm initiation detection algorithm using national mosaic radar data. Results show that these alternative methods can be used to mitigate the systematic error ...

Current nowcasting systems, such as MIT Lincoln Laboratory's Corridor Integrated Weather System (CIWS) (Wolfson et al. 2006) rely heavily on the tracking and trending of existing radar signatures of precipitation intensity and storm heights to produce forecasts, and as a result, often struggle ...
