Abstract

The effects of large‐scale topography and surface friction on short‐range numerical forecasts are investigated using a baroclinic two‐parameter prediction model, modified to include forced vertical velocities. Trial forecasts showed that the damping effect of surface friction is reproducible, but only moderate success was achieved in accounting for orographic influences.

## Abstract A numerical β€˜parameterization’ model has been developed in order to predict precipitation amount over hilly terrain in North Wales. The model enables calculations to be made of the vertical velocity profile resulting from orographic and large‐scale baroclinic effects at grid points one
