N2 - CoSPA is a very ambitious effort that consolidates existing aviation storm forecasts into a single system for both summer and winter, and that is specifically geared toward aviation needs and NextGen requirements for improved traffic flow management. Drivers for success will be true consolidation of the 0-2 hr forecasting efforts, advancements in storm-scale numerical weather prediction, techniques for blending of advectionbased and NWP forecasts, and adequate investment in model computing resources. Investment in providing networked access to existing sensor data is also essential. For NextGen goals to be realized, operational tests incorporating the CoSPA forecasts translated into ATC impacts, and the use of those predicted impacts in decision support tools for traffic flow management are essential.
