Description:Aviation verification statistics have been computed for Cleveland forecasters since 1980. For most of these years, the computations were done by hand, and a simple statistic had to be developed. The CERR program was developed soon after the National Verification Programs began to run, and it has replaced all the manual computations. It may be run in addition to the Western Region AEV program (Dunn, 1985) to provide a different view of the results. The statistic chosen for verification was the average MOS category error. This statistic is simply the absolute value of the difference between the category forecast and the category observed. Scores are computed for each forecaster and guidance at each station for each period forecast. The percent improvement over guidance is also computed. The scores are computed for ceiling and visibility forecasts.
