Convectif system of méso-scale

A convectif system of méso-scale (SCM) is a whole of Orage S which is distributed with time, in line or zones, to form entities which can occupy several tens to a few hundreds kilometers in length or diameter (Méso-scale).

The concept of SCM was developed by American researchers under the name of Mesoscale Convective System (MCS) to differentiate the individual storms from the stormy complexes. The term SCM thus indicates a class rather than a particular type of storms; classify being composed of: the line of grain, the Derecho, the Grain in arc, the convectif Complex of méso-scale, the tropical cyclones and any whole of storms more or less organized.
