== Expansion todo ==

Still need to finish adding model info from the 2005 Verification report and more details on each individual model. --[[User:AySz88|AySz88]][[User talk:AySz88|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#FF9966;">^</fontspan>]][[Special:Contributions/AySz88|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#FF6633;">-</fontspan>]][[User talk:AySz88|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#FF3300;">^</fontspan>]] 05:37, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

==Added topic year headers==

''18-Aug-2008:'' I have added the headers "Topics from 2006" (etc.) as on other talk pages, to help keep the topics sorted by date, but fortunately this was a small talk-page, so I ''didn't'' need to move several topics into date order (other talk-pages have had topics scrambled across 6 years). -[[User:Wikid77|Wikid77]] ([[User talk:Wikid77|talk]]) 18:01, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Editing Talk:Tropical cyclone forecast model

WeA couple of links to best computer models would help we, the public in coastal states, are intensely interested in current real-time data and detailed predictive information whenever a hurricane threatens our coast. Our encyclopedia is incomplete when it omits this salient information or how to find it.

See, e.g., this terrific link shows something like what we need:

This is also good:

We need this page to provide or point to site that provides a map representing the results of each computer model prediction of storm path of an active hurricane or tropical storm. It would be ideal if Clipper and all the global models were included, and as many as possible of the rest. The list in this article is excellent. If as many of these models could be included in a graph, it could be ideal.

This site was recommended as having good links, but couldn't get it to display -- maybe security?

We coastal dwellers need this wikipedia page to provide or pointlink to sitereal-time and predictive sites that provides a map representing the results of each computer model prediction of storm path of an active hurricane or tropical storm. It would be ideal if Clipper and all the global models were included, and as many as possible of the rest. The list in this article is excellent. If as many of these models could be included in a graph, it could be ideal.

It would help us greatly if each model could be represented on the map with a line graphic of a distinct highly visible color easily differentiated from the others.

Line 45 ⟶ 55:

Failing all that, a fallback would be a page giving links to each model, with the most accurate ones toward the top. <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/68.166.203.170|68.166.203.170]] ([[User talk:68.166.203.170|talk]]) 14:19, 21 August 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Long overdue expansion - input needed ==

Improvements to [[numerical weather prediction]], [[Atmospheric model]], and [[History of numerical weather prediction]] have led to some recent expansion within this article. We're reaching an impasse, however. The list format currently making up much of its body is not going to pass muster when this article is GANed, which could be sooner than you think. How should we proceed? I've added a history section, but we could just as well interweave history in with each piece of guidance, which would reduce redundancy, which has already begun to creep into the article. I need input before going further forward here. [[User:Thegreatdr|Thegreatdr]] ([[User talk:Thegreatdr|talk]]) 04:28, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

:I've split the history section into statistical and dynamical model sections, which incorporate both history and information about the guidance. As each model is discussed, I'm removing models from the lists below. [[User:Thegreatdr|Thegreatdr]] ([[User talk:Thegreatdr|talk]]) 05:13, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
