In this paper, we present the severe convective weather nowcasting system in Heilongjiang Meteorological Bureau and its preliminary performance evaluation, which has been in operational use since 2018. We believe that a good workflow design and intelligently integrated system plays an important role in the weather forecast service. Based on the current data environment, the system builds a unified data environment. Both the functions of automatic nowcasting system and Very-short-range Interactive Prediction System are presented too. The results show that this system plays a key role in the production of rapidly updated, convective storm nowcasting for end users.
