• Description:
  The National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center (SPC) develops and issues several forecast products that depict both severe and non-severe thunderstorm threats across the contiguous United States (Grams, Bunting, and Weiss, 2014). Among these forecast products are the Day 1 Convective Outlook and the Public Severe Weather Outlook (PWO) which provide categorical risk information that is derived from probability forecasts for tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail.
