Abstract

Numerical forecasting of the tropical storms in the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea has been attempted by non-divergent barotropic model using wind as the basic input at 500 mb. The model has been tested on a large number of cases and the results of verification of the forecasts reveal that operationally usable forecasts arc possible on majority of the cases.
