Reflecting on weather-related memories, the most vivid ones typically involve extreme events like thunderstorms, squall lines, tropical storms, and hurricanes. These phenomena present unique forecasting challenges due to their complex small-scale atmospheric interactions. Under the guidance of Professors Clark Evans and Paul Roebber, UWM's faculty and students lead pioneering work in high-impact weather research and operational forecasting. Their studies have significantly improved our comprehension and predictive capabilities for various weather systems, including thunderstorm development, mesoscale convective systems, tropical cyclones, midlatitude storms, and their associated risks and societal consequences.
