Statistical Verification Results for the Collaborative Convective ForecastProduct

摘要

This report summarizes the verification results for the Collaborative ConvectiveForecast Product (CCFP) that were collected during the 1999 summer Convective Intercomparison Exercise. The forecasts included in the study were those used in the collaborative process as well as the operational products produced by the Aviation Weather Center (AWC). The forecasts were verified using individual lightning and radar observations, as well as a convective field in which both lightning and radar observations were combined. The forecasts were evaluated as Yes/No forecasts of convection.
