Nowcasting, various approaches

• Nowcasting and very short range forecasting

TRT

• Convective cells• Pattern recognition and characterization (cloud top, VIL,

lightning activity,…)lightning activity,…)• Extrapolation to 60 minutes• Possibility to diagnose stage of maturity of TS

TRT

• Is used with some success• Automated thunderstorm warnings per location

• Not able to diagnose onset of TS• Extrapolation has limits over complex topography• Could be better by using NWP winds (…???...)

INCA

• Integrated Nowcasting through Comprehensive Analysis

• Analysis, extrapolation and blending system for various • Analysis, extrapolation and blending system for various parameters

• Different methods for each parameter• Developed with / adapted from ZAMG• Recent inclusion of COSMO-1

Discussion

• Rapid update analysis seems in view• Every hour• Available xy minutes after observations (x > 0)• Available xy minutes after observations (x > 0)

• Integration of more frequent observations: radar, satellites, visibility, ceiling, lightning, wind profiler,…

• Parameter specific methods do not necessarily have coherence
