the models did not capture mean daily temps well at the following locations and for particular times of year:
summer temps at Toronto Lester B Pearson
summer temps at Toronto City Center Island
winter temps at Wiarton
winter temps at North Bay
winter temps at Sioux Lookout
|
the models did not capture mean daily max temps well at the following locations and for particular times of year:
summer Toronto Lester B Pearson
summer Toronto City Center Island
winter Wiarton
winter Sioux Lookout
|
All models show a shift in the annual cycle of daily minimum temperatures. The largest model bias is for spring daily minimum temperatures that are warming than observed. Fall daily minimum temperatures are slightly cooler than observed.

windsor - model spread covers summer observed but large model variability. smaller variability during winter but models bias wet
London Intl - models capture observed during all months. typically models have slight wet bias. summer variability large
Toronto Lester B Pearson - models capture summer precip with large variability. spring and fall wet bias.
Toronto City Center Island - models bias wet all year
Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier - models slight wet bias all year. summer variability large
Wiarton - models capture observed most months but large summer/fall variability
North Bay - models capture ons most months but best Mar-Jun. dry bias in fall.
Sault Set Marie - dry bias most months but models capture ons half of the time
Sioux Lookout - models capture ons well during summer even though high variability
Timmins Victor Power - models capture obs well during most months
Big Trout Lake Station - models slightly wet in winter, capture ons in summer but higher variability
Moosonee UA Station - models wet in winter but capture obs in summer with smaller variability
