The IEM has a database archive of SPC MCDs since 2003. The download offered here does not contain the MCD text discussion, but the polygon geometry along with some metadata. The backend database that services this download updates in realtime, so the data should be as current as your download.

  1. The PROD_ID DBF field is a string the IEM uses to identify NWS Text products and can be used to call an IEM API to fetch the text of this product. https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/api/1/nwstext/{PROD_ID}
  2. The YEAR and NUM fields can be used to construct a stable URL into SPC's website like so: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/{year}/md{NUM:04i}.html
