Description:The primary guidance used by the forecaster at a typical National Weather Service Forecast Office to prepare the Extended (3-5 day) Forecast is the NMC Medium Range Forecast (MRF) model. The model output is available to the forecaster from 0-132 hours once per day from the 00Z forecast cycle. On a global or hemispheric scale, models like the MRF have shown tremendous improvement in skill over the last five to ten years. However, the extended forecast product is limited in scale to the size of a state. What is the skill of the MRF on this scale? How useful is the MRF in making the 3-5 day forecast?
