Improved weather forecast reliability extends lead time for more accurate predictions.
Blending different weather forecasts can improve accuracy by combining short-term and long-term predictions. By calibrating these forecasts together, the reliability of the overall forecast can be enhanced without losing detail. This method helps create a smoother transition between different forecast sources, leading to more consistent and skillful predictions. The technique also helps remove errors in the forecasts, although it may slightly reduce the sharpness of the final predictions.
