Description:The design of a regional multivariate optimum interpolation analysis scheme is presented. The way in which the error correlations of the guess fields and observations are analytically modeled is described. The moisture representation is obtained by univariate analysis of relative humidity for the three lowest sigma layers of the LFM model. Data selection and error-checking procedures are discussed. Results for one case suggest that the new scheme is capable of producing analyses and forecasts of comparable skill to those produced by the currently operational LFM analysis, with perhaps an improvement in precipitation forecasts.
