Abstract
Spread regression is an extension of linear regression that allows for the inclusion of a predictor that contains information about the variance. It can be used to take the information from a weather forecast ensemble and produce a probabilistic prediction of future temperatures. There are a number of ways that spread regression can be formulated in detail. We perform an empirical comparison of four of the most obvious methods applied to the calibration of a year of ECMWF temperature forecasts for London Heathrow.
