The way I see it, if you cant resolve a hurricane in a 150km x 150km
grid square, how can you move it around the globe?

They're not resolved in full detail but the pressure min / vorticity
max are there enough to be trackable at low resolution

however if
anyone's using global model output to try and work out the intensity,
they're on a hiding to nothing !!

Hence the process of bogusing the existing storm data into the global models
