Using objects to verify hail size +# avoids the “unfair penalty” issue, where a CAM must first generate convection +# to have any chance of accurately predicting the hail size. In addition, studies +# have shown that MRMS MESH observed hail sizes do not correlate one-to-one with +# observed sizes but can only be used to group storms into general categories. +# Running MODE allows a user to do this. + +############################################################################## +# Version Added +# ------------- # -# This use case calls functions in METcalcpy to create polar cap temperature -# and polar vortex wind.
