Lightning electromagnetic emission location using arrival time differencing (LEELA): An introduction to the Met Office's next generation Very Low Frequency lightning location system

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This paper describes the Met Office's new lightning location system LEELA. A brief overview of the upgraded hardware and geolocation algorithms is given. LEELA has improved lightning detection capabilities, especially at night. When comparing LEELA to the previous ATDnet system against ground truths LEELA has 100% storm detection efficiency within 5 km

A new scale‐selective measure of curvature for meteorological fields

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We introduce a novel diagnostic called curvature using radial variation (CURV) that quantifies the local cyclonic or anticyclonic curvature of mean‐sea‐level pressure or geopotential height gridded fields over selected scales. A depiction of how CURV values relate to differing cyclonic curvature is shown in the figure.

Subseasonal forecasts of the MJO and convectively coupled equatorial waves in ACCESS‐S2 and GraphCast: A multi‐year analysis

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
ACCESS‐S2 performs better in predicting longer time‐scale and slower moving waves (MJO and equatorial Rossby waves), while GraphCast performs better in predicting shorter and faster moving waves (Kelvin and mixed Rossby–gravity waves). However, both models systematically underestimate precipitation amplitude across all wave types, especially over the ...

Low‐order system for eddy growth in the storm track

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Reanalysis data for the North Atlantic storm track are used to construct a low‐order model that optimally fits the observed interaction between the mean flow and baroclinic eddies. The resulting model is a certain type of predator–prey model. It explains various properties of the storm track, including why eddies grow linearly with the Eady growth rate,

Enhancing severe convection forecasts with microwave radiance assimilation in limited‐area models

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Microwave satellite radiances remain largely underexploited in convection‐permitting limited‐area models. We assess the assimilation of humidity‐sensitive radiances from the MHS instrument in the operational ICON‐2I model, improving the precipitation forecast of a severe convective event over the Marche region, Italy, substantially by correcting ...
