The difference is in the way the product is going to be used. <br /><br />Forecasts based on our new computer model will go to our commercial clients only. For example, an experimental forecast made at 2pm Wednesday had Moore in an "enhanced tornado risk" area when the NWS had only a severe thunderstorm watch in effect. <br /><br />Think of it as a more precise tornado watch.

One quest...Hi Mike, I agree with your assessment. <br /><br />One question.<br /><br />How does a product like what you showed recently (long term - ie hours prior - tornado prediction) compare in your mind with a one-hour-away tornado warning?<br /><br />The latter seems like a terrible idea, as you have noted, because 5 minutes can feel like an eternity in a basement, let alone an hour. But could a several-hours-off tornado prediction (should it prove to be as accurate as was shown) do the same?PointSpecialhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15355874585604397464noreply@blogger.com
