## Abstract Cloud radar and lidar can be used to evaluate the skill of numerical weather prediction models in forecasting the timing and placement of clouds, but care must be taken in choosing the appropriate metric of skill to use due to the non‐Gaussian nature of cloud‐fraction distributions. We

## Abstract A method is described for the estimation of downwelling long‐wave radiation in both cloudy and clear‐sky conditions. This method uses an estimate of cloud fraction, obtained from the output of a laser cloud‐base recorder, to modify the clear‐sky emissivity as calculated from standard ne
