Description:

"This guidance was implemented by the Techniques Development Laboratory (TDL) during the late-1970s. One finding of the NOAA Disaster Survey team that investigated the Halloween Storm was that many forecasters were unfamiliar with the techniques used by, and the characteristics of, the MRPECS guidance (NOAA 1992). This document is intended to provide an overview of the MRPECS bulletin by reviewing its development, assessing strengths and weaknesses of the product, and discussing forthcoming changes, as well as new developmental efforts"--Introduction.
