Operational Forecasting of Freezing Rain Accumulation and Associated Impacts from Ice and Wind
Channel: SciShare
Date: 2017-05-12

This webinar will focus on recent research and developments in operational forecasting of freezing rain, as well as the expected impacts of the combination of ice accumulation and wind. The Freezing Rain Accumulation Model (FRAM) will be reviewed, including use in an operational setting and influence of various meteorological variables on icing efficiency. Preliminary work toward the development of an outage predictor will also be discussed, including its implications and utility in providing DSS in icing scenarios.
