WFO Raleigh Collaborative Research - A Five Step Process
For many years, the National Weather Service in Raleigh and North Carolina State University have worked together to improve forecasting in the
Carolinas. The result of these collaborative efforts has been a better understanding of forecast problems found in the southeast and the
Carolinas (cold-air damming, mixed precipitation, coastal flooding along the sounds, etc). In many cases, the research has resulted in
operational schemes that have helped NWS meteorologists forecast these meteorological phenomena. Indeed, meteorologists at NWS-RAH
and NCSU faculty view our joint collaborations as a 5-Step Process, whereby research findings ultimately are integrated into operations.
