This study investigates the feasibility of using a high resolution simple diagnostic model (WOCSS) initialized from a coarser grid full physics prognostic model (COAMPS) to obtain mesoscale winds. This approach using COAMPS 81, 27, and 9 km forecast model soundings to initialize WOCSS at 3 km is compared to COAMPS forecast at 3km horizontal resolution alone. Four case studies were collected during various weather regimes in Central California. Observations were ...
