Verification of 3-5 day forecasts / Peter Haering, chief meteorologist.: En57-44/83-013E-PDF

"There is always considerable interest expressed in the forecast quality of various forecast products. The 3-5 Day forecast as issued by the Pacific Weather Centre (see Attachment) has not been verified for any lengthy period. A.E.S. now verifies selected stations across Canada for Day-1 and Day-2. This verification study is an attempt to shed some light on PWC's performance in forecasting the occurrence of precipitation in the 3-5 Day range, and allow for some comparison in the Day-1 and Day-2 range."
