Joseph G. Galway (December 3, 1922 – June 29, 1998), was an American meteorologist pioneering in the fields of severe convective storm forecasting and research. He was one of the first forecasters for the Severe Local Storms Unit (SELS) and the National Severe Storms Forecast Center (NSSFC), and developed synoptic (as well as mesoscale) predictors associated with severe thunderstorms and tornadoes such as the jet streak and lifted index.[1][2]
