Forecaster Evaluation
During the 2003 Pacific Jets Experiment (PACJET), a variety of near
real-time resources
will be made available to National Weather Service forecast offices in the
Western Region.
These resources will include: a network of boundary layer wind profilers and
feature-tracked winds from the third GOES rapid-scan WINDs
Experiment (GWINDEX-3).
In an effort to determine the impact of
these resources on the forecast process, three feedback strategies will
be made available to the forecasters during PACJET 2003: web-based feedback
forms, feedback via Area Forecast Discussions, and a special email
address. This approach to gathering feedback was successfully
implemented this last winter during the PACJET-2002 deployment.
