Based on feedback from ESWD users collected at meetings in November 2017 and the ESWD User Forum in March 2018, the European Severe Weather Database<\/a> has been updated to Version 4.4<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A number of changes have been made, particularly to the submission form<\/strong>.\u00a0The most important changes are:<\/p>\n

1. Kyrgyzstan<\/strong>, Tajikistan<\/strong>,\u00a0Turkmenistan<\/strong>\u00a0and Uzbekistan<\/strong> were added, so it is possible to enter reports for these countries. ESSL aims to learn more about storms in Central Asia!<\/p>\n

2. The submission form<\/strong> has been simplified<\/strong>\u00a0substantially.<\/p>\n

3. Place and time accuracy<\/strong> have become\u00a0required<\/strong> fields.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

An updated version of the submission form. Time and place accuracy (in red boxes) are now required fields. Drop-down menu can be accessed by clicking at “More Details”<\/p><\/div>\n

4. Funnel<\/strong> clouds<\/strong> can not be submitted into ESWD anymore.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. The country<\/strong> can now be changed in the submission form.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0Impacts<\/strong> of the event can now be indicated<\/strong> by ticking<\/strong>\u00a0checkboxes. Each type of severe weather has a different set of impacts that can be selected. This step streamlines the reporting of impacts into the ESWD, and makes it easier to compile\u00a0statistics of severe weather impacts of the storms across Europe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

An example of impact choices for large hail event type.<\/p><\/div>\n

You can try out the new version by accessign the ESWD website<\/a>. We welcome your feedback at eswd@essl.org!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
