Abstract

Of the various types of weather phenomena, thunderstorms produce some of the most immediate and impactful hazards---damaging winds and hail, frequent lightning, and intense rainfall. Resilience to high-impact weather can be attained through investment in several key areas: proper infrastructure; effective emergency management; public education; and well-informed weather forecasting services.
