Wind gusts present challenges to operational meteorologists, both to forecast accurately and also, to verify. Strong wind gusts can damage structures and create costly risks for diverse industrial sectors. The meteorologically stratified gust factor (MSGF) model incorporates site-specific gust factors (the ratio of peak wind gust to mean wind speed) with wind speed and direction forecast guidance. The MSGF model has previously been shown to be a viable operational tool that exhibits skill (improvement over climatology) in forecasting peak wind gusts. This study assesses the performance characteristics of the MSGF model by evaluating peak gust predictions during several types of gust-producing weather phenomena. Peak wind gusts were prepared and verified for 7 specific weather conditions over an 8-year period at 16 sites across the United States. When coupled with two forms of model output statistics (MOS) wind guidance, the MSGF model generally shows skill in predicting peak wind gusts at forecast projections ranging from 6 to 72 hours. The model performed best during high pressure and nocturnal conditions and was also skillful during conditions involving snow. The model did not perform well during the rain with thunder weather type. The MSGF model is a viable tool for the operational prediction of peak gusts for most gust-producing weather types.
