Tropical Storm Lee Forecast Verification
Written by Derek Ortt on January 4, 2006
There were only two forecasts that could be verified for Tropical Storm Lee. The mean errors were well above average, though those are strictly from forecast 1. Forecast 2 was much better.
The reason for the limited number was that forecasts were not written while Katrina was threatening the Gulf Coast, and the fact that lee lasted only for a short time afterward.
