Two limited area model derivatives of the numerical weather prediction model COSMO-DE operated by the German Meteorological Service are introduced. The aim is to obtain frequently updated highly re-solved predictions in a limited area as an aerodrome. The predictions include dynamic parameters as wind and turbulence kinetic energy and thermodynamic quantities as temperature and humidity but also the amount of snow, rain and hail. The models are used in the airport environments of Frankfurt (COSMO-FRA) and Munich (COSMO-MUC) for aircraft wake vortex, thunderstorm activity, and wintry weather warning applications, as detailed in Sections 2.1 to 2.4.
