Innovations in Winter Storm Forecasting and Decision Support Services

Abstract: Winter storms are disruptive to society and the economy, and they often cause significant injuries and deaths. Innovations in winter storm forecasting have occurred across the value chain over the past two decades, from physical understanding, to observations, to model forecasts, to post-processing, to forecaster knowledge and interpretation, to products and services, and ultimately to decision support. These innovations enable more accurate and consistent forecasts, which are increasingly being translated int… Show more

“…The weakness in this type of approach is the assumption that SLR during all winter storm events is constant, plus the 10:1 ratio differs from the local climatology as computed in Baxter et al (2005). In the past decade, attempts at introducing more dynamic means of SLR prediction have been introduced, but these methods have not been without their shortcomings (Novak et al, 2023). An alternative dynamic approach to SLR prediction, as presented in this work, could inform better snowfall forecasting, for example, through statistical post‐processing of output from the National Blend of Models (NBM) within the NWS.…”
