<p>
The Lifted Index (LI) is defined as a rising parcel's temperature when it reaches 
the 500 millibars level (at about 5,500m or 18,000 feet asl), subtracted from 
the actual temperature of the environmental air at 500 mbar. If the Lifted 
Index is a large negative number, then the parcel will be much warmer than its 
surroundings, and will continue to rise. Thunderstorms are fueled by strong rising air, thus the 
Lifted Index is a good measurement of the atmosphere's potential to produce 
severe thunderstorms.

  <div class="eI2">The Global Forecast System (<a href="http://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/gmb/moorthi/gam.html" target="_blank">GFS</a>) is a global numerical weather prediction computer model run by NOAA. This mathematical model is run four times a day and produces forecasts up to 16 days in advance, but with decreasing spatial and temporal resolution over time it is widely accepted that beyond 7 days the forecast is very general and not very accurate.<br>
<br>
The resolution of the model horizontally, it divides the surface of the earth into 20 kilometre grid squares; vertically, it divides the atmosphere into 64 layers and temporally, it produces a forecast for every 3rd hour for the first 240 hours, after that they are produced for every 12th hour.
