GME (driving model) miss located Gonu center and underestimated the associated wind and pressure drop.

Clear dependency between GME forecast quality and HRM/COSMO forecast quality.

Even though HRM/COSMO are not TC specialized models, both have given the signal for Gonu.

COSMO_07 were able to forecast Gonu as Severe Cyclonic Storm starting from 12UTC run of 4th June 2007.

On average COSMO shows 5% improvement of track forecast and 3% on the wind intensity over HRM.

Both HRM_07 and COSMO_07 have signaled 48h rainfall of more than 900mm starting at June 5th with reasonable spacial and good amount agreement with the recorded rainfall.

Both HRM & COSMO are not specialized TC models, Testing the new “TC bogussing” scheme developed on the HRM community.

Testing the effect of introducing Data Assimilation system for the HRM model.

Plan to introduce SREF system, and test the performance.
