Short summary
This paper represents a summary of the contribution that the Italian meteorological community is willing to provide to the forthcoming European field campaign on Thunderstorm Intensification from Mountains to plains, planned in 2028–2030. Critical issues regard both the available instrumentation and the accuracy of numerical models. These limitations, in the context of climate change making severe convective episodes more frequent, make the need for a dedicated field campaign urgent.
