Extended Range Verification

The extended range products should always be used with historical skill metrics in mind, as provided by verification probabilistic scores from the re-forecasts.

The Anomaly charts (500hPa N Hem anomaly and Global and Regional anomaly) show how past extended range forecasts performed in the lead up to a particular week.  The anomaly of one week of forecasts (relative to the ER-M-climate) is compared with the weekly mean anomalies (relative to the ER-M-climate) of recent extended range forecasts verifying over the same period.   They give information about the consistency between the monthly forecasts from one week to another.
