\title{Pressure and temperature forecast errors over the Pacific Northwest}
\usage{data(weather)}
\description{
Meteorological dataset, which consists of differences between forecasts
and observations (forecasts minus observations) of temperature and
pressure at 157 locations in the North American Pacific Northwest.
}
\format{
The data frame \code{weather} contains the following columns:
\describe{
\item{pressure}{in units of Pascal}
\item{temperature}{in units of degree Celcius}
\item{lon}{longitudinal coordinates of the locations}
\item{lat}{latitude coordinates of the locations}
}
Furthermore, some results obtained from the data analysis in
\code{\link{jss14}} are delivered that are
\code{pars.model}, \code{pars}, \code{whole.model}, \code{whole}.
Finally, the variable \code{information} contains packing information
(the date and the version of \pkg{RandomFields}).
}
\details{
The forecasts are from the GFS member of the University of Washington
regional numerical weather prediction ensemble (UWME; Grimit and Mass
2002; Eckel and Mass 2005); they were valid on December 18, 2003 at 4 pm
local time, at a forecast horizon of 48 hours.
}
\source{
The data were obtained from Cliff Mass and Jeff Baars from the University
of Washington Department of Atmospheric Sciences.
