Re: GFS FV3 #2 in August
Jeff,
Great to see! Interesting to note dramatic difference between
GFS and FV3 re both intensity and path of Florence as it approaches
the Carolinas (see attached figs). ...
small science change to FV3GFS
hello- A modest science change was made to the FV3GFS late last week to address an issue with tropical cyclone intensity being too weak. This change to an advection scheme...

RE: Better handling of high-level Hurricane moisture outflow?
Hi Tim,
Thanks for posting this case! It's good to see that the FV3
performance was better overall here, and given it was consistently
drier than the GFS for several runs, it...
Better handling of high-level Hurricane moisture outflow?
Here is something completely different. For Fire Weather in the
Intermountain West, it is often very subtle model differences that are
VERY important.
