atmosphere, and
particularly on the low-level wind field.
The earlier of the two runs for each case and initial snow cover serves as a control for the later
run. By comparing forecast hours 0 – 48 of the later run, with forecast hours 24 –
72 of the
earlier run, it was found that, for all three cases, the atmospheric component of the model loses
memory of the initial conditions within 12 – 24 hours
