Description:

This paper is a follow-up to Central Region Technical Attachment 88-28, "How accurate are the 3-5 Day Temperature Forecast." In the previous paper, the three to five day temperature forecasts were examined in the winter months. This paper will take a look at the 3-5 day temperature guidance in the summer months. The temperatures were obtained from the AIDS graphics 93P, 94P, and 95P. These graphics contain a maximum-minimum temperature forecast, a POP forecast, and deviations from normal. The Medium Range Forecast Model (MRF) was the rain source of numerical guidance used to produce these charts.
