Name: A Comprehensive Glossary of Weather Terms for Storm Spotters
Publisher: National Weather Service Forecast Office
Type: Lexicon
Categories: Earth Sciences
Description: This glossary contains weather-related terms that may be either heard or used by severe local storm spotters or spotter groups. Its purposes are 1) to achieve some level of standardization in the definitions of the terms that are used, and 2) provide a reference from which the meanings of any terms, especially the lesser-used ones, can be found. The idea is to allow smooth and effective communication between storm spotters and forecasters, and vice versa.
