Short summary
Mesoscale Convective Systems cause extreme weather and flash floods, yet they remain difficult to simulate in climate models. We developed a tracking tool to identify these storms using standard model data. Our 27-year record for Europe shows these systems drive over 60 percent of heavy hourly rain in the warm-season. This algorithm allows us to evaluate climate model performance and investigate how these intense storms will change in a warming climate.
