Abstract

Severe thunderstorm is the convective weather feature, originated from cumulonimbus cloud. It has devastating effect in the society. Accurate prediction with enough lead time is needed to make the people alert from such destructive event. In this study, analysis of grayscale cloud imageries and histograms has been used to nowcast severe thunderstorm.
