Synoptic-scale Prediction

Synoptic-Scale Prediction is a meteorological forecasting approach that belongs to the class of medium-range atmospheric prediction methods, distinguished by its focus on identifying and projecting the evolution of large-scale weather systems—such as high- and low-pressure systems and frontal zones—over spatial scales of approximately 1,000 to 10,000 kilometers and time horizons of 3 to 10 days.
