![[Welcome to FSL]](http://www.fsl.noaa.gov/fsl/images/mastheads/welcome.jpg)
On this page you can access examples of LAPS products in Thailand, as well as some training presentations on LAPS given by Ed Szoke during the visit to FSL by members of the Thailand Meteorology Department during 14-26 May 2001.
Note that a Thailand D2D localization is available on workstation #7 in the Weather Briefing Room. Model output (from the ECMWF, AVNGlobal, and UKMET) is available, as well as satellite imager (choose "4 Sat Composite"). There may be some buoy and moving ship obs also.
This page has been assembled by Ed Szoke. You can view my homepage here.
The general FSL LAPS homepage is
here.
Prepared by Ed SzokeCategories
The Thailand Meteorological Department's homepage (English version) can be found
here. Forecasts, satellite imagery and much more can be found on this
homepage.
Realtime LAPS analyses for Thailand can be found
here.
Realtime LAPS forecasts using MM5 for Thailand can be found
here.
Or...on
this page
you can access realtime LAPS analyses AND forecasts.
LAPS training: from visit during 14-26 May 2001.
A powerpoint version of the basic LAPS presentation shown during
on 16 May can be found
here.
An html version of the same presentation can be found
here.
Case studies from Colorado showing the use of LAPS for nowcasting.
Colorado summer convective example from 17 August 1999.
Use of LAPS in a weakly-forced convective event that develops
along a stationary boundary in northeastern Colorado.
Colorado summer convective example from 14 May 1999.
Use of LAPS in a convective line event that develops
along/ahead of a strong cold front moving across northeastern Colorado.
A wintertime case from Colorado from 8 February 2001.
This case illustrates some useful LAPS products for diagnosing
highly forced events. Upper-level forcing, jet streak diagnosis, and CSI, among other
factors, are illustrated with this case.
Examples from Colorado showing the use of a local model for nowcasting
and short-range forecasting.
Other weather information (satellite imagery, etc.)
Satellite and other weather information for Thailand and surrounding areas.
The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in Monterey, California, maintains
an impressive array of satellite
imagery that covers Thailand. The main page is located
here.
Click on "Tropical Images & Movies" to get access to the various satellite images.
The "Western Pacific" sector covers Thailand. There are also analyses overlaid with the images, found from
the main page by clicking on "Images with NOGAPS overlays".
Other (non-MM5) numerical model forecasts that include Thailand.
The United States Navy's Fleet Numerical Meteorology and Oceanography Center (FNMOC) runs a numerical model
(NOGAPS) for various windows around the world, and also displays NCEP's MRF/AVN model where applicable.
All can be accessed from
this site by clicking on the "WESTPAC" window.
"Quikscat" page.
This
page may include satellite-derived winds from ocean areas surrounding Thailand.
