2 What products are missing? Wish list from NHC, JTWC and CPHC? Single model ensemble TC genesis 5-day forecasts Multi-model ensemble TC genesis 5-day forecasts Single model ensemble TC wind speed probability forecasts Multi-model ensemble TC wind speed probability forecasts???? Challenges on global ensemble TC genesis forecasts The global ensemble (like GEFS) usually predicts weaker vortex than observations. How to define a model vortex as a genesis TC? How to improve the reliability of TC genesis probability forecast? Challenges on global ensemble TC track forecasts Provide the deterministic track forecast and the uncertainty of the forecast How much uncertainty do we need to tell the public? How to make the deterministic track forecast for the super-large spread cycle?

18 TC Genesis Tracker Code Based on Tim Marchok s latest version for genesis track, we make the following changes: (1)Calculation for hPa temperature anomaly; (2)Calculation for hPa zonal wind shear; (3)Calculation for 500hPa mean relative humidity; (4)The AL90-99, EP90-99 and WP90-99 are those invest storms named by NHC and JTWC. In case of NHC and JTWC miss potential TC genesis, we create some interested storms based on GFS-T574 operational, Canadian, NOGAPS and ECMWF Deterministic Forecasts, named as HC01, HC02, etc.
19 Algorithms for TC genesis probabilistic forecast How to define global model TC genesis? The prediction vortices in Global Ensemble Forecast Systems are very weak. (25kts?) Step No.1: (for GEFS, ECMWF, CMC, FNMOC ensembles) We track every vortex by checking: 1)850/700hPa/surface relative vorticity (max) 2)850/700hPa geopotential height (min) 3)Sea level pressure (min) 4)850/700hPa/surface wind speed (min) 5)SLP gradient (0.0015mb/km), Wind speed at 850hPa ( 1.5m/s) 6)Closed SLP contour checked Step No.2: (for GEFS and ECMWF ensemble) We filter those vortices based on the following criteria: 1)Surface maximum wind speed 10kts 2)850hPa maximum vorticity 10**(-4) 1/s 3) hPa temperature anomaly 0.5c
