Evaluation of WRF Forecasts of Tornadic and Nontornadic Outbreaks when Initialized with Synoptic-Scale Input

Uncertainty exists concerning the links between synoptic-scale processes and tornado outbreaks. With continuously improving computer technology, a large number of high-resolution model simulations can be conducted to study these outbreaks to the storm scale, to determine the degree to which synoptic...
