"Upper wind forecasts can be in serious error in the vicinity of jet streams due to the inability of the numerical models to resolve the abrupt changes of wind, temperature and pressure gradients. While this study examines one particular case, its aim is to demonstrate the necessity for having subjectively produced upper level wind forecasts"--Abstract.
