The Multi-Risk Vigilance Card is a product developed by the Ministry of Public Security (MSP) that brings together warnings and reports on phenomena of natural origin that may have consequences on the safety of citizens, goods and services to the population. It is updated continuously automatically. It allows for continuous monitoring of the province's territory in relation to dangerous natural phenomena. Environment and Climate Change Canada weather warnings for blizzard, fog, freezing rain, rain, fog, freezing rain, rain, snow, hail, hurricanes, tropical storms, winter storms, severe storms, tornadoes, tornadoes, storm winds, storm winds, strong winds, strong winds, strong winds, hurricane force winds, high winds, hurricane-force winds, heat waves, and all weather events whose severity* is greater than or equal to moderate; This data comes from the company's National Alert Aggregation and Dissemination System (ADNA) Pelmorex private. The information conveyed in the alerts complies with the standards of the Common Alert Protocol (PAC).**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

The Canadian Lightning Detection Network (CLDN) provides lightning monitoring across most of Canada. The data distributed here represents a spatio-temporal aggregation of the observations of this network available with an accuracy of a few hundred meters. More precisely, every 10 minutes, the reported observations are processed in the following way: The location of observed lightning (cloud-to-ground and intra-cloud) in the last 10 minutes is extracted. Using a regular horizontal grid of about 2.5km by 2.5km, the number of observed lightning flashes within each grid cell is calculated. These grid data are normalized by the exact area of each cell (in km2) and by the accumulation period (10min) to obtain an observed flash density expressed in km-2 and min-1. A mask is applied to remove data located more than 250km from Canadian land or sea borders.

Weather Elements on Grid (WEonG) based on the High Resolution Deterministic Prediction System (HRDPS) is a post-processing system designed to compute the weather elements required by different forecast programs (public, marine, aviation, air quality, etc.). This system amalgamates numerical and post-processed data using various diagnostic approaches. Hourly concepts are produced from different algorithms using outputs from the pan-Canadian High Resolution Deterministic Prediction System (HRDPS-NAT).
