A case study in the use of satellite information in assessing numerical weather prognoses, November 7, 1980 / Louis Legal, meteorologist. : En57-44/81-004E-PDF

"On the morning of November 7, 1980, satellite imagery indicated that the CMC 500mb analysis at 1200Z was in error just west of the B.C. North Coast. A Pacific Weather Centre 500mb analysis using satellite thickness analysis confirmed the error. The 12 hour LFM prognoses valid at the same time verified quite well with the P.W.C. surface and 500mb anlayses; consequently, they were used as primary guidance that morning. Subsequent forecasts based on those decisions proved to be quite good."
