A comparison of the POP forecasts between CMC and PWC during August 1982 / Howard Richardson, operations technician, David Grimes, supervising meteorologist.: En57-44/82-021E-PDF

"During the month of August, very little attention was paid to the CMC POP guidance. This presented an opportunity to conduct and independent analysis of how well the CMC guidance performs against the subjective forecasts prepared by the forecasters of the Pacific Weather Centre. It would have been better to have a larger sample than just a single month, but a program was introduced in September which incorporates the CMC POP guidance into the forecaster's decision making process."
