An Assessment of the Weather Research and Forecasting Model for Solar Irradiance Forecasting under the Influence of Cold Fronts in a Desert in Northwestern Mexico

Northwestern Mexico has a desert climate with high solar resources. Clear skies and low humidity during most of the year favor their use. In winter, the arrival of cold air masses from the polar latitudes cause instability and abrupt changes in atmospheric variables, increasing the error of short-te...
