Blog: The best way to receive harsh weather alerts
SuperCell is a thunderstorm with rotating updraft, which is classified as mechyclone. The rotation is what distinguishes SuperCell from a typical thunderstorm. In order to develop SuperCell, you need many ingredients such as moisture, instability and wind cutting (wind changes in speed and direction with height).
Instability creates a rapid development of storms, speed of moisture, and the wind cutting the Mesocyclone. Updraft speeds are stronger in Supercell creates large cold stones.

SuperCells is classified into three categories, classic, high rains, and low rainfall.
classic Distributed distributed evenly with the possibility of hurricanes, large cold, and heavy rain
Low rainfall – Mesocyclone intense with less rain
High rainfall -Mesocyclone is wrapped in heavy rains, more difficult hurricanes
Understanding the flag behind this mesocyclones helps meteorologists predict the harsh weather to maintain your safety and informed.
