Supercell

Supercell is a term used in meteorology to describe a type of thunderstorm characterized by a deep, persistently rotating updraft, known as a mesocyclone. Supercells are typically long-lived and capable of producing severe weather such as large hail, damaging winds, and sometimes tornadoes. They form in environments with substantial vertical wind shear and atmospheric instability, often featuring a single, dominant updraft and a rear flank downdraft. The organized structure of supercells makes them a primary focus for severe-weather forecasting and risk assessment.
