Tropical Cyclone Amos (2016) Forecasting Challenges: A Model’s Perspective

Tropical Cyclone Amos (2016) Forecasting Challenges: A Model’s Perspective

ABSTRACT: The tropical cyclone (TC) named Amos (2016) that impacted the Samoan Islands on 23 April 2016 was a particularly difficult storm to forecast. Both the intensity changes and the track of Amos represent a significant challenge for forecasters and this is briefly summarized in this report.Mod...
