DESCRIPTION:This paper evaluates the dynamic impact of weather shocks on ec
 onomic activity within the three main European countries. To consolidate me
 aningful variation in weather patterns\, we propose a novel monthly composi
 te weather index (CWI). This index captures relevant information on severe 
 cold and heat conditions\, drought\, heavy precipitation\, and intense wind
  events. We estimate a series of country-specific Bayesian Structural Vecto
 r Autoregressive models to assess the effects of weather shocks on distinct
  production sectors\, namely energy\, construction\, manufacturing\, and se
 rvices. The findings reveal evidence of a significant impact of weather sho
 cks on economic activity in Europe\, with each component of the CWI exertin
 g heterogeneous effects across.\\n\\nContact: Gilles Dufrénot: gilles.dufr
