5 Improved Hurricane Forecasts Global ensemble initialization, resolution and physics upgrades Improved ensemble initialization Stochastic surface physics Model error estimation (scaling for ensemble perturbations) Increase model computational efficiency Upgrade cloud and precipitation physics Resolution increases 64 ~128 levels km horizontal (deterministic) 55 km TBD (ensemble) NAM tropical cyclone relocation Improves storm initial condition and predicted motion Extend to RAP (ARW dynamic core) and SREF Develop infrastructure needed to assimilate Caribbean and Central American radar data with NCEP data assimilation systems Acquire data Develop quality control procedures Extend current radar mosaic to cover new data 5
6 Marine (Hurricane) Applications Nearshore Wave Prediction System Wave field and surge/inundation guidance Probabilistic guidance from P-Surge from MDL Available on AWIPS Testing at multiple coastal WFOs and NCEP OPC with funded hardware Unstructured grid development Coupled wave-surge guidance using SWAN/WAVEWATCH III and ADCIRC Consistent guidance with NHC TCMs Storm Surge P-Surge (probabilistic product) development and storm surge warnings NWS forecaster, external partner, and user training Expansion from tropical to extra-tropical over time Use of gridded winds in SLOSH, P-Surge and Extra-Tropical Storm Surge (ETSS)
7 Gap Mitigation Projects OSE - documentation of gap impact Science-based development sub-projects 4-D Hybrid Cloud-impacted radiances Enhanced AMV use Enhanced Geostationary (GOES-R) data use Enhanced use of European products Enhanced use of aircraft observations (global and domestic) Supporting infrastructure Accelerate implementations through NCO High performance computing upgrade 7
8 Conclusion Sandy mitigation efforts provide game changing opportunity for the entire forecast process 32 (2-3 year) projects with multiple collaborators Accelerates major advancements to operational computer and model infrastructure Strong collaborations Leveraging existing projects/contracts/efforts Close scrutiny and oversight of projects Weekly projects meeting Monthly AA briefs Quarterly reporting to NOAA and OMB FY14/15 Budget Submissions build on Sandy Supplement efforts 8
