Short summary
Offshore wind turbines can be directly impacted by the jet maximum winds of low-level jets, which makes them very important to the wind energy community. Here, we simulate an offshore low-level jet event using a weather model from low resolution to very high resolution. We run the simulations several times, varying the sea surface temperature to generate different realizations of the event and comparing against observations. We then ask and answer: "Is model performance consistent across scales?"
