1 The ECMWF Extended range forecasts ECMWF, Reading, U.K. Slide 1 TC January 2014 Slide 1
2 The operational forecasting system l High resolution forecast: twice per day 16 km 91-level, to 10 days ahead l Ensemble Prediction System (ENS): twice daily 51 members, 30/60 km 62-level, to 15 days ahead l Extended range forecasts /ENS extension: twice a week (Mon/Thursdays) 51 members, 32/64 km 91 levels, to 1 month ahead l Long range forecasts: once a month (coupled to ocean model) 51 members, ~80 km 91 levels, to 7 months ahead Slide 2 TC January 2014 Slide 2

Ocean initial conditions provided by 5-member NEMOVAR analysis
4 Bridging the gap between seasonal forecasting and NWP l Extended-range weather forecasting: Beyond 10 days and up to 30 days description of weather parameters, usually averaged over a period of 5-7 days and expressed as a departure from climate values for that period. l A particularly difficult time range: In fact at this time range is generally too long for the atmosphere to keep a memory of its initial conditions, and too short for the ocean variability to have an impact on the atmospheric circulation. Slide 4
5 The ECMWF extended forecasts consists of 2 elements: Real time forecasts A set of re-forecasts covering the most recent 20 years period the same configuration of the real time forecasts 5-member ensemble integrated at the same day and same month as the real-time time forecast It runs once every week Used to estimate the model drift Slide 5

25 Conclusion l SSTs, Soil moisture, stratospheric initial conditions and MJO are source of predictability at the intra-seasonal time scale. In particular the MJO has a significant impact on the forecast skill scores beyond day 20. Model improvements, particularly in simulating the MJO activity are likely to be beneficial for monthly forecasting. l The monthly forecasting system produces forecasts for days that are generally better than climatology and persistence of day Beyond day 20, the monthly forecast is marginally skilful. For some applications and some regions, these forecasts could however be of some interest. Slide 25
