Today’s verification session revealed again quite a good performance of our participants in day-1 forecasting. Lightning probability areas especially in Alpine and Carpathian region denoted accurately places where lightnings occurred yesterday.

After verification procedure, participants in 2 teams were obliged to conduct weather briefing on their own. Chrisoph Gatzen prepared guidelines to highlight the most important aspects which can be used in presenting day1 and day2 forecast.

Team 1 focused on the trough in Paris domain, while second group prepared analysis for Sofia domain. With the use of experimental forecasting tools group leaders managed to do it quite well. Their presentations were transmitted using Saba software, so that remote participants were also able to be involved.
