mesoscale analysis

Mesoscale analysis involves studying atmospheric phenomena that occur on a scale between small local weather patterns and large global systems—typically covering areas from a few kilometers up to hundreds of kilometers. It focuses on regional weather features like thunderstorms, frontal systems, and local wind patterns. By examining data such as temperature, humidity, wind, and pressure at this intermediate scale, meteorologists can better understand, forecast, and predict specific weather events that affect communities and regions, providing more accurate and timely weather information for daily activities and safety planning.
