Popis: The development of the Queen Elizabeth II storm from 1200 UT on September 9, 1978, to 0000 UT on September 11, 1978, is forecast with a limited-area, fine resolution (100 km) numerical weather prediction model. Forecasts from initial conditions that include and exclude Seasat scatterometer surface winds are performed. When the Seasat winds are allowed to influence the upper levels of the atmosphere, a large positive impact is found.
