2 Hurricane WRF in Taiwan TTFRI and CWB collaborated with ESRL/NOAA and had successfully implemented the Hurricane WRF(HWRF) model in Taiwan since 212. In Apr. 213, TTFRI and CWB had the operational version of HWRF from EMC. TTFRI had added 2 HWRF members into Taiwan Cooperative Precipitation Ensemble Forecast Experiment (TAPEX) from 212 to 213. HWRF 215 operational version updated in Oct. 215.

19 Summary & future work of Hurricane WRF We successfully implemented HWRF system in Taiwan and evaluated the track and rainfall forecast performance of HWRF over WNP from For static domain HWRF configuration with higher vertical(43levs) and horizontal(3 km) resolution can have better capabilities in forecasting typhoon track and rainfall. But it s rainfall forecast ability still poor than TWRF. A sensitivity test of model cumulus scheme had been done to evaluate the track and rainfall forecast ability between SAS and BMJ scheme. 6 TCs cases show that BMJ performs better during 18-24H in track forecast and 25-35H in rainfall forecast. To update the 215 operational HWRF version and continue evaluating the performance over the WNP. 19
