Model Diagnostic Discussion
The Model Diagnostic Discussion NFDPMDHMD
is issued daily at 0530Z & 1730Z.
It describes performance attributes of at least the GFS and Eta model for the most recent 00Z or 12Z run.

Model Verification
The links below allow you to ascertain how
well a model forecast has verified as a function of forecast hour, cycle, and field.

NCEP EMC provides performance statistics on the models at the
NCEP EMC MODEL PERFORMANCE site
and at the NCEP
EMC Forecast Verification System site.
Model Biases
Model bias information is provided in two ways:
1. Subjectively (by compiling impressions from forecasters)
2. Objectively (by automated comparison of model forecasts to model initialization)

EMC/HPC/MPC/NCO Synergy Meeting Highlights
Meetings between NCEP EMC, NCO, and NCEP Operational centers are held routinely to discuss short term
implementation plans of the models in concert with super computer and communication system development.
Operational feedback from users is incorporated into these plans.
