Current skills for Prediction of SM rainfall is far from satisfactory

Given the limited skills of the current models, Is there anything
else we can do beside MME?A new thrill:
Use the high predictability of the controlling circulation system to
improve rainfall prediction and TC activity prediction that the models
cannot do

Variations of WPSH is of utmost importance for seasonal forecast of EASM rainfall and WNP TS activity, (Tao and Chen 1987, Nita 1987, Wu et al. 2002, Wang et al. 2001, Lau and Weng 2002),
Yet the causes of the WPSH variability remains debated and the predictability of the WPSH has not been established.

Conclusions1. Importance: The IAV of the WPSH faithfully represents
the strength of EASM (r=–0.92), the TS days over the subtropical WNP (r=–0.81), and the total number of TSs impacting East Asian coasts (r=–0.76).
2. Dynamics of WPSH: The IAV of WNPSH is primarily controlled by equatorial central Pacific warming/cooling and a positive atmosphere-ocean feedback between the WNPSH and Indo-Pacific warm pool ocean (SST dipole).
3. Predictability: The WNPSH is highly predictable. 4. Prediction of precipitation and TS: Predictability of the
WNPSH paves a promising pathway to predict EASM, ASM and WNP tropical storm activity.

ImplicationsPositive monsoon-ocean interaction can
provide a new source of climate predictability.
Subtropical dynamics is important for understanding monsoon/TS predictability.
Making use of the global models’ strength in prediction of large scale circulation may
substantially improve direct rainfall and TC prediction

How can anomalous western North Pacific Subtropical High intensify in late summer?
Xiang et al. 2013, GRL
1) The majority of strong WNPSH cases exhibit anomalous intensification in late summer (August), which is dominantly determined by the seasonal march of the mean state. 2) The local convection-wind-evaporation-SST (CWES) feedback relying on both mean flows and mean precipitation. This mechanism is more effective in August.
