description abstract | A nonparametric technique based on a pattern recognition algorithm is used to forecast the probability of precipitation for 42 stations over the western United States. Mean-square errors or Brier scores between forecasted values and observed precipitation are obtained for an independent data sample. These mean-square errors are compared with those obtained from linear regression equations and climatology for the same data set. The skill of this technique is comparable with that of the linear regression equations and is considerably better than that of climatological forecasts. | |
