Selections apply to both the table and exported plot. Models with no verified cases for these filters are omitted. All scores use the selected station; precipitation is not silently substituted from a different airport.

Models appear when saved forecasts have matching observations in the selected period and lead range. Daily scores require a complete day captured in advance and its climate report.

Uses the measure, period, lead range and sorting selected above. Created in your browser from saved verification statistics; no model downloads. Changing filters clears the preview.

Hourly temperatures use routine METAR within 15 minutes of forecast valid time. Daily high/low use 24 complete forecast hours saved before the standard-time day starts, compared with the same station’s completed climate report. Missing reports remain unverified. MAE = mean absolute error; bias = forecast minus observed; RMSE = square root of mean squared error. Each case has equal weight; counts differ by model. Cycle captures are labeled separately: their initialization is provider-reported and their contents may combine runs. Newly logged forecasts are never backdated. Scores refresh in background approximately every 30 minutes; cumulative CSVs update every six hours. REFS members and means share this comparison with all available models. Precipitation/timing scores appear only where those metrics have been logged.
