The first stage of forecasting convective weather involves forecasting the evolution of conditions that are favorable for the development of storms and their probable initiation. The scale of the forecasts are typically on the order of 100 km or larger and the lead time between the forecast and storms is 1-48 hours. In the United States, procedures have evolved so that the Storm Prediction Center of the National Weather Service has the responsibility for issuing these forecasts for the contiguous 48 states (the part of the US excluding Alaska and Hawaii.)
