## Abstract Accurate prediction of rare highβimpact events represents a major challenge for weather and climate forecasting. Assessment of the skill at forecasting such events is problematic because of the rarity of such events. Skill scores traditionally used to verify deterministic forecasts of r
The paper examines how empirical models can be constructed to describe the dependence of the error in fitting data to parametric models of probability distributions on the type of distribution, sample size, parent parameter values and percentiles of interest. Such models are important in evaluating
