Description:Medium range forecasting here refers to predictions covering conditions in the period 6-10 days in the future. Current operational procedures and products are reviewed. The discussion includes presentation of verification statistics of the ECMWF and NMC model guidance and the final manually modified predictions. The paper concludes with a summary of experiments underway to predict forecast skill and to assess the utility of ensemble prediction. Note: This paper is a summary of a presentation at the ECMWF Third Workshop on Meteorological Operational Systems, 18-22 November 1991, and is reproduced in the workshop proceedings.
