Shortrange Forecasting of Cloudiness and Precipitation through Extrapolation of GOES Imagery.

A Scheme for Short-Term Prediction of Hydrometeors Using Advection and Physical Forcing.

“…Such forecasts, however, are seriously degraded by developmental contributions which are often linked to the localized terrain (Muench, 1981;Hill et al, 1981). This suggests that a complete short-term forecasting system must include some form of data base that will enable the forecaster to anticipate these localized contributions to non-steady translation.…”
