>> Part 1:
>> 
>> Statistical prediction of tropical cyclone intensity using

>> HWRF analysis and forecasts
>> 
>> Four new dynamical and thermodynamical predictors were used as the 
>> basis for a new linear regression model for short range hurricane

>> advection of relative angular momentum, (2) energy exchange from

>> vorticity, and (4) the vertical differential of heating in the 
>> complete potential vorticity equation.  The new model produces 
>> systematically better forecasts than HWRF for short term (less than 
>> 48-hr) forecasts.  Additional methods were developed to extend 
>> forecasts beyond 48 hours, resulting in a systematic improvement of 
>> HWRF forecasts.
>> 
>> Part 2:
>> 
>> Initial diagnostic observations of the 2011 operational HWRF
>> 
>> A few diagnostic observations of the 2011 HWRF are presented for 
>> discussion.  Initial statistical analysis of high-temporal (18s) 
>> resolution HWRF forecasts of Earl will be presented.  Additionally,
