Abstract

Murillo and Homeyer (2019) introduced revised fits between the radar maximum expected size of hail (MESH) parameter and the severe hail index (SHI). However, the coefficients included in the text for these fits were incorrect. All of the analyses presented therein used the correct coefficients. The incorrect equations as given in section 3c of Murillo and Homeyer (2019) are The corrected equations are MESH75 = 16.566(SHI)0.181 and (15) MESH95 = 17.270(SHI)0.272. (16) MESH75 = 15.096(SHI)0.206 and (15) MESH95 = 22.157(SHI)0.212. (16). Thanks are given to Nathan Wendt from the NOAA Storm Prediction Center for bringing this error to our attention.
