del forecasts.Atmospheric soundings produced from the ETA model are combined with real-time Doppler radar data to assess the potential of individual storms to produce dry microbursts. The strategy is one of assessing the potential for dry microbursts and then to monitor real-time radar reflectivity data. Case studies will be presented and model errors will be discussed. Observed soundings are compared to mo
