Everyone, I just wanted to inform you I apologize for the lack of weather posts this summer and this fall. It has been an incredibly difficult year for forecasting, not only for the United States but also for Canadians one of the things that I’ve noticed is the increased lack of accuracy with weather models, including high resolution convection allowing models one of the main problems I’ve come across is every single convector model over the last few months has shown a different output resolution for storms in Manitoba as well.
There has been completely different outcomes with each model run and is because of the Trump administration in the United States cutting access to funding for meteorologists and firing staff in NWS offices, to launch Weather balloons. Computer model data has also significantly deteriorated in terms of quality therefore focus accuracy has gone down the gutter this year. I cannot confidently forecast to the level that I did last year at this point when it comes to forecasting storms even today all the weather models were hinting at thunderstorms, developing in the red river Valley and Southern Manitoba, today they developed along the American border and even at this moment, the model is suggesting thunderstorms impacting Winnipeg with upwards of 30 to 40 mm of rain and that seems to not be the case at all based on current radar data. I am looking forward to the full months and creating forecast for winter storms, but it has been incredibly difficult year for forecasting thunderstorms. Also we have had a couple of sleeper set ups where not a lot of models are suggesting storms happening and they pop up out of know where along the frontal system that moves into the province at this point I have to find some ways to Find more meaningful forecasting opportunities for next summer. As for the administration in the United States I don’t think they will make any changes to the situation in United States are Weather offices, and this is contributing to the current problem with forecasting solutions.
