A Retrospective Satellite Analysis of the June 2012 North American Derecho
Remote Sensing, 2022 The North American Derecho of 29–30 June 2012 exhibits many classic progressive and serial derecho features. It remains one of the highest-impact derecho-producing convective systems (DCS) over CONUS since 2000.
