Convective storms, such as severe thunderstorms, hail, downburst winds, and cloudbursts are among India’s deadliest natural hazards, especially during the pre-monsoon and monsoon seasons.Despite advancements in Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models, traditional systems often fail to accurately capture these mesoscale extreme weather events.The primary limitation stems from spatial and temporal constraints: these violent storms develop rapidly within a window of minutes and occur at localized scales that slip through coarse grid resolutions. Current early warning infrastructures struggle to provide high-resolution, short-term forecasts (0–6 hours), leaving local administrations, aviation sectors, and rural farming communities vulnerable to sudden, devastating effects. The challenge is t
