Enhanced Occurrence of Springtime Extreme Precipitation Associated With Mesoscale Convective Systems Over the US by Baroclinic Annular Mode

Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are powerful contributors to extreme precipitation, often resulting in flash floods. However, the extent to which these systems are influenced by natural modes of climate variability is still not fully understood. In this study, we found that the occurrence of extreme precipitation f...

Minimum pressure outperforms maximum wind speed in predicting hurricane storm surge, damage and fatalities

Storm surge from Atlantic tropical cyclones (TCs) is a large driver of fatalities and damage, accounting for 32% of all continental US (CONUS) TC fatalities from 1963 to 2024. Previous work has shown that landfalling minimum sea level pressure (MSLP) predicts normalized TC damage better than maximum sustained wind...
