The workshop was intended for all in academia, government, and the private sector with an interest in understanding the latest science behind the risk from severe convective storms. The workshop showcased the latest research on severe convective storms (tornadoes, hail and damaging wind) and their connections with the climate system on all time scales. The workshop featured invited keynote talks, a limited number of contributed talks, panel discussions, and a poster session, as well as substantial breaks and opportunities for networking and unstructured discussion.
