Introduction
European winter windstorms are a major cause of losses to the insurance sector. To help the sector better understand this risk the Operational Windstorm Service for the Insurance Sector has been developed. The development of the service follows from a Proof of Concept for a Sectorial Information Service to provide information about European windstorms, which is the Windstorm Information Service (WISC), part of the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S). This document describes the Tier 1 indicators and how they are produced by the University of Reading. The Tier 1 indicators provide summary statistics for wind storm activity per year and per European country.
