BACKGROUND
THE NWS METEOROLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT LABORATORY /MDL/ IS
RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF A TRAJECTORY
MODEL. THIS MODEL PREDICTS THE TRAJECTORY OF AIR PARCELS BASED ON
THE 3-D WIND FIELD OF THE NGM. THE PRODUCTS GENERATED WITHIN THIS
MODEL ARE LISTED BELOW. THE NWS IS MAKING CHANGES TO THE
OPERATIONAL COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT AS WELL AS THE
TELECOMMUNICATIONS GATEWAY. WITHOUT SIGNIFICANT MODIFICATIONS...
THE CURRENT TRAJECTORY-BASED PRODUCTS CANNOT BE PRODUCED. THE NWS
HAS NOT RECEIVED FEEDBACK FROM THE FORECAST COMMUNITY INDICATING
THEY ARE USING THE CURRENT TRAJECTORY MODEL PRODUCTS. WITHOUT
SUCH A REQUIREMENT MDL LACKS ADEQUATE RESOURCES TO UPGRADE THE
CURRENT PRODUCTS.
PROPOSED CHANGE
PENDING THE RESULTS OF THIS REQUEST FOR COMMENT... ON TUESDAY
JANUARY 11 2005 NWS WILL REMOVE THE NGM-BASED TRAJECTORY MODEL
AND ALL OF THE ASSOCIATED PRODUCTS LISTED BELOW FROM THE NWS
PRODUCTION STREAM.
