Trends in thunderstorm days, lightning activity, squalls and the environmental factors in Hong Kong

open access: yesWeather, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 248-257, August 2026.
This study analyses trends in Hong Kong's convective weather using long‐term observer‐based and shorter‐term instrument‐based data. Annual thunderstorm days increased significantly by 1.9 days decade−1 in 1947–2024, notably in June–September, consistent with increasingly favourable warm‐season environments for thunderstorms.

Streamflow Spatial Correlation Length Increases During Storms and Its Application in Data Assimilation Improves Streamflow Predictions

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The spatial correlation of streamflow in a river network captures how flows at different locations relate to one another and influence the downstream response. In this study, we analyze the spatial correlation of streamflow and rainfall during storm events in three Texas watersheds: San Antonio (2015 and 2016 storms), Guadalupe (2018 storm ...

Radar, Lightning, and Synoptic Observations for a Thunderstorm on 7 January 2012 during the CHUVA-Vale Campaign

open access: yesAtmosphere
Thunderstorms can generate intense electrical activity, hail, and result in substantial economic and human losses. The development of very short-term forecasting tools (nowcasting) is essential to provide information to alert systems in order to mobilize

Tracing Hailstone Development: Isotopic Evidence and Microphysical Variability in Texas Supercell Events

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Two supercell thunderstorms that occurred in Del Rio and Burkburnett, Texas in the spring of 2020 produced greater than 5 cm diameter hailstones. Fourteen hailstones, eight from Del Rio and six from Burkburnett, were cut in half along the maximum principal axis. Half the hailstone was dissected at 0.5 cm increments, providing 198 subsamples of

Doppler Radar Observations of a Mountain Hailstorm

open access: yes, 1975
By means of an X-band, vertically pointing Doppler radar observations were made of a thunderstorm on 20 August 1973 producing hail about 6 mm in diameter. The observations confirm earlier ones showing a highly variable internal structure.
