Application for Early Warnings products and Animation for One-month Prediction

The Early Warning Products page provides the Extreme Forecast Index (EFI) for extreme weather events, covering the period up to two weeks ahead. The EFI is a measure of ensemble prediction system (EPS) forecast deviation from climatological probability distribution. It is considered useful for the early detection of extreme climatic event risk in combination with more detailed information from other EPS products such as probability maps and EPS meteograms.

The Animation page provides seven-day running mean maps of analyses and forecasts. The analyses are based on the JRA-3Q dataset, and the forecasts are based on the JMA's seasonal EPS.

Please read the Conditions of Use outlined below before applying to JMA to access the Products. JMA will review applications and, if accepted, issue ID and password.
Please note that JMA accepts applications from National Meteorological and Hydrological Services only.
