Severe convective storms are among the most difficult catastrophe perils to model, according to a research discussion circulating among climate scientists. Hail, tornadoes, damaging winds and extreme precipitation have traditionally been assessed separately, but capturing their dependence, co-occurrence and clustering remains a key challenge for improved risk assessment.

Why now: Growing concern about compound extreme weather risks is driving scientific discussion on better modelling of severe convective storms.
