Environment of severe storm formations over West Africa on the 26‐28 June 2018

Environment of severe storm formations over West Africa on the 26‐28 June 2018

Abstract Understanding the environmental evolution of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) is critical for forecasting weather in West Africa. This study investigated the thermodynamic and synoptic environments of MCSs over West Africa on 26 (storm 1) and 28 (storm 2) June 2018. Primary datasets used...
