Summary
Mesoscale Convective Systems
(MCS) are
Organized clusters of thunderstorms
that can span
Hundreds of kilometers
and last for several hours, significantly impacting weather patterns through
Heavy Rainfall
,
Strong Winds
, and sometimes hail or tornadoes. These systems are crucial for understanding
Precipitation distribution
and
Severe Weather Events
, particularly in
Mid-Latitude Regions
during
Warm seasons
.
