Objective Wind Probabilistic Forecasts

The color scheme of "Objective wind probabilistic forecasts for the Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA)" has recently been revised based on user feedback. The product was first introduced in 2009 as an experimental product supplementing the information provided in TAF. Objective wind speed and crosswind probabilities for HKIA are generated based on the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Ensemble Prediction System (EPS).
