Product Description

Results are statistically derived from the operational Global Ensemble Forecast System (GEFS), calibrated and validated for hazardous weather conditions. Probabilities are produced for three wind speed (34, 48, and 64 knots) and four significant wave height (4, 6, 9, and 14 meters) thresholds for a one-week cumulative interval, associated with week 2. The values provide the probability the event will occur sometime during the specified one-week cumulative forecast period at the locations specified on the map.
