Date/Time Issued:  July 9th, 2013 1535 UTC

Product(s) or Data Impacted: 
ADT8.1.4 products.

Satellite(s) Involved:  
GOES-East,  GOES-West,  METEOSAT-7/10,  MTSAT, F-15/16/17/18, TRMM

Instrument (s) Involved:
  Imagers/SSMI/SSMIS/TMI

Date/Time of Initial Impact:  
July 10th, 2013  15:00  UTC

Impacts on Users and Significance: 
Operational capability for
enhanced Advanced Dvorak Technique (ADTv8.1.4) products.


Details/Specifics of Change:

1.Implemented MW "eye score"  within ADT algorithm using polar orbit satellite microwave data.
2.Implemented the Courtney/Knaff/Zehr logic for determining the ADT final MSLP value, with new equations and parameter inputs into the ADT
3.Modification of the eye and cloud region regression equations
4.Changed EPAC storms to use West Pacific regression equations for eye and CDO based on EPAC case statistical analysis
5.Added in a CDO adjustment for weak, forming storms or strong, weakening storms (to adjust for biases in each case).
