HRES output (10 days forecast period)
- CONTROL-10/HRES output is shown to give "deterministic" snapshots of the forecast evolution for various combinations of parameters. It is important not to be beguiled into treating CONTROL-10/ HRES charts as definitive, despite the apparent detail. The CONTROL-10/ HRES should only be considered as one member of the ensemble.
Charts available:- Forecast charts (surface and upper air) - showing a selection of individual and combined parameters, to 10days forecast lead-time.
- Charts available(atmospheric):
- MSLP and wind speed at 850hPa
- MSLP and wind at 200hPa
- MSLP and Rain
- MSLP and 500-1000hPa thickness
- Vorticity and wind at 700hPa
- Temperature and geopotential at various pressure levels
- Wind and geopotential at various pressure levels
- Wind and relative humidity at various pressure levels
- Geopotential 500hPa and temperature at 850hPa
- 2m temperature and 30m winds
- 2m temperature and 10m winds
- Total cloud cover
- Indices (CAPE/K-index/Totalx)
- Charts available(oceanic):
- Significant wave height and mean direction
- Mean wave period and direction
- Total swell: Significant wave height and mean direction
- Total swell: Mean wave period and direction
- Significant wind wave height and mean direction
- Mean wind wave period and direction
- Charts available(atmospheric):
- Imagery charts:
- IR and WV imagery charts - these are derived from the structure of the IFS model atmosphere and provide a useful comparison with satellite imagery and analysed and forecast upper air flow patterns. They may be particularly useful for seeing whether the model is replicating small scale features in the flow. (Example IR chart, Example WV chart).
- Forecast charts (surface and upper air) - showing a selection of individual and combined parameters, to 10days forecast lead-time.

- Clicking the mouse over any location on the "clickable" CONTROL-10/ HRES (all charts) and ensemble charts (Probably charts and Extreme Forecast Index charts) will produce probability information in diagrammatic form on several parameters at that location. Parameter diagrams available:
