Mesoscale Forecasting

Mesoscale Forecasting is a specialized branch of weather forecasting that focuses on predicting atmospheric phenomena within the mesoscale range—typically spanning horizontal scales of 2 to 2,000 kilometers—distinguished by its emphasis on high-resolution numerical models and the explicit simulation of convective and orographic processes that govern short-term, location-specific weather events.
