Dear Bastien and co-authors,

Thank you for the submission of your very interesting manuscript “Concurrent modes of climate variability linked to spatially compounding wind and precipitation extremes in the Northern Hemisphere”.

As you know, three reviewers have now provided detailed reviews, which you have replied in thoughtful detail to. Two reviewers recommended major revisions and one minor revisions and therefore I would like to invite you to submit a revised version of your manuscript.

Would you please also provide an ‘author’s reply’ to the reviewers (feel free to use the same words that you used in what you have already uploaded). Please make sure to sufficiently explain is you have decided not to take some of the suggestions on board. Please can you also include a track changes document between the old manuscript and the new one (you can include this as part of your ‘author’s reply’).

I look forward to seeing the next version of your manuscript.

Best regards,

Dr Anaïs Couasnon
