(spot) forecasts and synopses
Manual forecasting is where our strength lies and this is where we make the difference to other options with our extensive local knowledge of western Canada. Manual forecasts are specified to your needs and usually contain the forecast of a few parameters for your coordinates several days in advance. Often it is accompanied by a written summary of the current weather situation in your vicinity (synopsis), describing major weather patterns affecting you over the next days. It is then followed by a confidence statement that is a mixture of current model accuracy mostly taken from ensemble forecasting systems and a forecaster’s feel for the weather scenario and terrain. This is THE information tool for your daily weather and major risk management decisions in your operation. We can issue such forecasts on a regular or special request basis, provided that a 12 hour notice has been given. Because spot forecasts are customized contact us to discuss your particular needs.

Services
Anytime you have a question with regards to current weather, you can receive forecasts, synopses and any type of assessments over the phone. An account is set up and we keep track of the calls. This way, we know that you may be calling at any time and we keep an eye out for any developments over your particular area. the
Weather Watch
The ‘weather watch’ is another customized service through which we follow the progression of your weather from day to day and notify you if your specific limits are expected to be surpassed. If, for example, you need to know when your particular location may receive 30cm of snow within 12 hours or more, we will give you a heads-up as soon as the probability is surpassing 60%. We can then issue a proper forecast, phone call etc. to provide you with more details. In some cases the heads up for such a case can be as far in advance as 5 days.
