Over the last decade global numerical weather prediction models have become sufficiently sophisticated to forecast the movement of tropical cyclones with a reasonable degree of accuracy. This paper describes the work being done at the Met. Office in Bracknell, UK, to improve and verify track forecas

## ABSTRACT Highβresolution NWP models which can explicitly allow convection (albeit poorly resolved) are usually run in limitedβarea domains, and are nested inside coarser resolution models with parametrized convection. The mismatch of the grids and model physics at the boundaries of the limitedβa
The moisture content of wheat and barley is forecast during the harvesting period. Each hour the forecast model uses standard weather elements of air temperature, dew-point temperature, wind speed, amount of precipitation, global radiation and cloud cover. Over a period of four years, 1989-1992 incl
## Abstract We show that the standard deviation of the distribution from which changes in the ensemble mean are drawn can be predicted using the ensemble spread. Such a forecast has direct application for companies that trade weather swaps and need to evaluate their risk. Copyright Β© 2003 Royal Met
