TL;DR: In the 2007 NOAA Hazardous Weather Testbed Spring Experiment, the Center for Analysis and Prediction of Storms (CAPS) at the University of Oklahoma produced a daily 10-member 4-km horizontal resolution ensemble forecast covering approximately three-fourths of the continental United States as mentioned in this paper.

Examination of convection-allowing configurations of the WRF model for the prediction of severe convective weather : The SPC/NSSL spring program 2004
TL;DR: In this article, the utility of the Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) model was evaluated during the 2004 Storm Prediction Center-National Severe Storms Laboratory Spring Program in a simulated severe weather forecasting environment.

Next-Day Convection-Allowing WRF Model Guidance: A Second Look at 2-km versus 4-km Grid Spacing
Craig S. Schwartz,John S. Kain,Steven J. Weiss,Ming Xue,David R. Bright,Fanyou Kong,Kevin W. Thomas,Jason J. Levit,Michael C. Coniglio +8 more
TL;DR: The results of the 2007 NOAA Hazardous Weather Testbed (HWT) Spring Experiment as mentioned in this paper show that the 2-km deterministic output was compared with forecasts from the 4-km ensemble control member.
