This study revealed the formation processes of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) over the eastern Tibetan Plateau (TP), associated with the establishment of subplateau‐scale convergences affected by the longitudinal surface wetness gradient. Composites of reanalysis data and satellite infrared images showed that large MCSs occurred in the afterno...
