This application allows you to search an archive of Storm Prediction Center (SPC) Convective Outlooks, Mesoscale Convective Discussions (MCD)s, and Convective Watches. This archive is unofficial and based on IEM's processing of text products issued by the SPC. Each tab presents buttons that allow for a download of the data in Excel or CSV format and a direct link to the JSON service backending the table.
