Other current numerical prediction models lack the spatial resolution required to capture small-scale, short-duration events such as snow bands.
General Prediction goals are:
  • Mesoscale Phenomena.
    • 0 to 12 hours.
    • Location of events to within 50 km.
    • Timing of events to within 1 hr.
    • DV ± 5 m/s, DT ± 3 Kelvin, precip rate ± 5 mm/hr.
  • Stormscale Phenomena.
    • 0 to 6 hours.
    • Location of events to within 10 km.
    • Timing of events to within 15 min.
    • DV ± 5 m/s, DT ± 2 Kelvin, precip rate ± 5 mm/hr.
  • Microscale Phenomena.
    • 0 to 1 hours.
    • Location of events to within 1 km.
    • Timing of events to within 5 min.
    • DV ± 2 m/s, DT ± 2 Kelvin, precip rate ± 2 mm/hr.
