Evaluation of Hurricane Harvey (2017) Rainfall in Deterministic and Probabilistic HWRF Forecasts [PDF]

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
Rainfall forecast performance was evaluated for the first time for the Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting (HWRF) model. This study focused on HWRF performance in predicting rainfall from Hurricane Harvey in 2017. In particular, two configurations

Investigating the Impact of High-Resolution Land–Sea Masks on Hurricane Forecasts in HWRF [PDF]

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
Realistic wind information is critical for accurate forecasts of landfalling hurricanes. In order to provide more realistic near-surface wind forecasts of hurricanes over coastal regions, high-resolution land–sea masks are considered.

Increasing vertical resolution in US models to improve track forecasts of Hurricane Joaquin with HWRF as an example [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2016
Significance For forecasts of Hurricane Joaquin in 2015, the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasting model consistently and correctly predicted a track away from the US mainland, while the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Centers for Environmental Prediction Global Forecast System (GFS) and ...

Tropical Cyclone Winds from WindSat, AMSR2, and SMAP: Comparison with the HWRF Model [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
A new data set of tropical cyclone winds (‘TC-winds’) through rain as observed by the WindSat and AMSR2 microwave radiometers has been developed by making use of a linear combination of C- and X-band frequency channels.

Optimizing the Assimilation of the GOES-16/-17 Atmospheric Motion Vectors in the Hurricane Weather Forecasting (HWRF) Model

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Hourly and 15 min GOES-16 and -17 atmospheric motion vectors (AMVs) are evaluated using the 2020 version of the operational HWRF to assess their impact on tropical cyclone forecasting. The evaluation includes infrared (IR), visible (VIS), shortwave (SWIR)
