In his comment, D. M. Schultz asked for clarification concerning (i) the validity of the results of C. Hohenegger and B. Stevens for the development of convection over the midlatitudes and (ii) the exact meaning and computation of the term “moisture convergence.” This reply aims at clarifying these two aspects.
