Seasonal pre-adjustment using STL substantially improved forecast accuracy, with STL-XGBoost achieving the lowest univariate errors (Sylhet: RMSE\u2009=\u20092.53; Sreemangal: 2.09; Mymensingh: 2.08). Inclusion of exogenous variables dramatically enhanced predictive skill with tree-based and kernel methods: STL-XGBoostX with climate predictors proved optimal for Sylhet (MASE\u2009=\u20090.22), while STL-SVRX with climate predictors was optimal for Sreemangal and Mymensingh (MASE\u2009=\u20090.17), representing over 80% improvement compared to univariate benchmarks. Seasonal forecasts (2025\u20132028) project peak monsoon activity reaching 100.5 frequency at Sreemangal and identify April\u2013August as the critical preparedness window for these stations. This study provides the Bangladesh Meteorological Department with a validated, operational framework for station-specific thunderstorm frequency forecasting, demonstrating that explicit seasonal decomposition combined with tree-based ensemble and kernel methods offers robust accuracy for early warning systems. The methodology can be extended to additional stations and integrated with socio-economic data to enhance disaster preparedness and climate adaptation strategies for Bangladesh\u2019s most thunderstorm-vulnerable communities.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0358795","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,24]],"date-time":"2026-09-24T17:48:16Z","timestamp":1790272096000},"page":"e0358795","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Station-specific thunderstorm forecasting using climate predictors with seasonal decomposition analysis in Bangladesh\u2019s most vulnerable regions"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Mohammad Mahboob Hussain","family":"Khan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD)","place":["Dhaka, Bangladesh"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-7892-1784","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Amrin Binte","family":"Ahmed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jahangirnagar University","place":["Dhaka, Bangladesh"],"department":["Department of Statistics and Data Science"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Adisha","family":"Dulmini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Wollongong","place":["Wollongong, NSW, Australia"],"department":["Department of Business and Law"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rawfun","family":"Nahin Kowbi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jahangirnagar University","place":["Dhaka, Bangladesh"],"department":["Department of Statistics and Data Science"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dulsaba","family":"Azmain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Business and Economics, North South University","place":["Dhaka, Bangladesh"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Muhammad Abu","family":"Sufian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jahangirnagar University","place":["Dhaka, Bangladesh"],"department":["Department of Statistics and Data Science"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Md.
