1 Real-time NPJ Phase Diagram 2017 Verification Statistics (Updated: 3 April 2017)

2 Notes for Interpretation
Jet Regimes, for the purpose of analyzing forecast skill, were defined according to the position in the phase diagram when a particular forecast was initialized. Forecasts by month were classified according to the date a particular forecast was initialized (e.g., a forecast initialized Jan. 31, is grouped into the January bin). For the time series plots, each point along the black line corresponds to the error of the #-day forecast that was initialized on that particular day, NOT the error on the day the #-day forecast verified.

3 Reliability Diagram (Sept 1–Apr. 3)
Perfect Reliability The GEFS appears to be underdispersive with respect to medium-range forecasts of the North Pacific Jet in the phase diagram
