Description:

During the spring and summer of 1987, TDL's new, operational 0-6 h objective QPF product (OBJ) was verified and compared against three similarly verified NMC QPF products over the conterminous United States. The NMC products were a manually prepared QPF chart (MAN) issued 4-6 hours earlier than the OBJ and 6-12 and 12-18 h QPF maps from the NGM and LFM. All products were verified for two consecutive 6-h periods, 1800-000 GMT (afternoon) and 000-0600 GMT (evening).
