Description:This technical report describes the activities and results of the Hurricane Forecast Improvement Program (HFIP) that occurred in the 2021 and 2022 hurricane seasons. The major focus of this report is the development of the Hurricane Analysis and Forecast System (HAFS) as a hurricane application of the Unified Forecast System (UFS) and its first operational implementation. As 2022 marks five years since the Weather Act of 2017 established new 5-year goals for HFIP, we will pay particular attention to progress HFIP has made in meeting these goals. We also report some significant improvements in forecasting rapid intensification (RI) of tropical cyclones (TCs), one of the primary goals of HFIP that was set in the beginning of the program.
