List of Storm Prediction Center meso-gamma mesoscale discussions explained

This is a list of meso-gamma mesoscale discussions, which are issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Storm Prediction Center for small-scale analysis of mesoscale features, typically during high-confidence and high-impact severe weather events.[1] [2] [3] [4] These can be for tornadoes believed to be at least EF2 on the Enhanced Fujita scale, or winds at least 100mph. So far, the Storm Prediction Center has issued 44 meso-gamma mesoscale discussions.
