The Appalachian Mountains have a considerable impact on daily weather, including severe convection, across the eastern United States. However, the imp...
The skill of surface temperature forecasts up to 4 weeks ahead is examined for weekly tercile category probabilities constructed using extended logist...
The extent to which submonthly forecast skill can be increased by spatial pattern correction is examined in probabilistic rainfall forecasts of weekly...
This paper describes the development of a model framework for Forecasts of Hurricanes Using Large-Ensemble Outputs (FHLO). FHLO quantifies the forecas...
The current global operational four-dimensional ensemble-variational (4DEnVar) data assimilation (DA) system at NCEP adopts a background ensemble at a...
Satellite observations of tropical maritime convection indicate an afternoon maximum in anvil cloud fraction that cannot be explained by the diurnal c...

Description:
Increased operational use of convection-allowing models and ensembles offers substantial improvements for some aspects of convective weather forecasti...
Errors associated with the location of precipitation in QPFs present challenges when used for hydrologic prediction, particularly in small watersheds....
Ensemble sensitivity analysis (ESA) is applied to select types of observations, in various locations and in advance of forecast convection, to systema...
In August 2018 and June 2019, NCEP upgraded the operational versions of the High-Resolution Rapid Refresh (HRRR) and Global Forecast System (GFS), res...
2020 | Journal of Hydrometeorology, 21(8), 1723-1740
Description:
Orographic precipitation gradients (OPG) relating to the increase or decrease in precipitation amount with elevation are not well studied or analyzed ...
The performance of the Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting (HWRF) Model Rapid Intensification Analog Ensemble (RI-AnEn) is evaluated for real-t...
Strongly coupled land–atmosphere data assimilation has not yet been implemented into operational numerical weather prediction (NWP) systems. Up to n...
Remotely sensed soil moisture data are typically incorporated into numerical weather models under a framework of weakly coupled data assimilation (WCD...
Large-scale atmospheric circulation regime structures are used to diagnose subseasonal forecasts of wintertime geopotential height fields over the Nor...
Narrow regions of intense, banded snowfall present hazardous travel conditions due to rapid onset, high precipitation rates, and lowered visibility. D...
This study examines the subseasonal predictive skill of CFSv2, focusing on the spatial and temporal distributions of error for large-scale atmospheric...
Monthlong simulations targeting four Madden–Julian oscillation events made with several global model configurations are verified against observation...
