How does the timing and distribution of the precipitation from the forecast compare to the observations shown in the paper by Pantillon?

  • MSLP + 10m winds :                                                         interesting for Nadine's tracking and primary circulation
  • Geopotential height + temperature at 500hPa :            large scale patterns, mid-troposphere position of warm Nadine 's low and the cold Atlantic cutoff
  • Geopotential height + temperature at 850hPa :            lower level conditions, detection of fronts
  • 320K potential vorticity (PV), and
  • 500hPa relative vorticity (see Fig. 14 in Pantillon) :     upper level conditions, upper level jet and the cutoff signature in PV

Horizontal maps (analysis + forecast) :1 : Geopotential + temperature at 500 hPa --> mid troposphere localization of the cold cutoff and the warm Nadine. On the deterministic forecast we should not see Nadine and the cutoff "meeting", with Nadine moving eastward.
2 : MSLP + relative humidity at 700hPa + 850 absolute vorticity --> Signatures at low levels of Nadine and disturbance associated with the cutoff low.  Mid level humidity of the systems.
