Subject: Leaving London

Hi guys...

Before leaving here I wanted to quickly summarize the projects that have been
left open:

1) Tony shifts his focus slightly toward more development - a little less day
to day forecasting
Development
- Building and developing a transatlantic heating demand model -
including shipment
- Building an NAO model and index for wx deriv
- Developing a model for the API number
- Examine UK Met data and potential for getting Ensemble forecasts from
the ECMWF
- Keep up with non-Enron Global Markets' future needs without commiting
current resources

Operational
- Begin daily briefings for Agriculture - examine data sources and
forecast products
- Continue to produce Global Summary - with help from Steve/Jose in Houston
- Continue to produce 1-5 and 6-10 day forecasts for Europe coordinating
with Houston
- Continue to coordinate on US 6-10 day forecasts with Houston
- Continue Monday/Wednesday briefings for Crude meetings
- Provide met comment and support toward weekly/monthly/seasonal official
outlooks from the UK Met for WxDeriv (team support from houston)
- Design and Develop forecast of Met forecast (try to beat their release
by at least 1 hour) prior to each daily update (like our Bloomberg Forecaster)
- Identify any additional "market-movers", anticipate and add value to
same

"Back-Burner"
- Develop a method for providing probability distribution/confidence
graphics based on numerical forecast guidance and ensemble data

"On the Shelf"
- Daily briefings and products for UK Gas
- Daily briefings and products for Continental Power
- Daily briefings and products for Dutch Power
- weather support for Coal Trading?
- Daily forecasts of and comment on UK Met official 3-5 and 6-10
forecasts
- Automation of temperature history/forecast plots from model ensemble
data

2) Steve continues to work on a few ongoing projects and ties up "loose ends"
On-Going
- Automate a process for getting forecast temps (Model/Other) from
EarthSat data
- Continue to produce the US part of the Global Exec Summary
- Consult with Tony on 1-5 day Europe Forecast
- Continue to produce Port Status Report - work on expanding this report
- European forecast verification (like Houston)


"Loose-Ends"
- Contract with WSI for met data
- Talk to EarthSat about a daily conference call for Tony
- Talk to UK Met office about a daily conference call for Tony
- Refine list of Europe forecast cities and get them from EarthSat
- Make sure Jose didn't destroy my house!!


3) Jose
- Continues to investigate data for Global Ag and works with Tony on
getting Ag products up and running
- Makes sure Steve's dog is in perfect shape to return home this weekend
(i.e. find one with identical markings before Steve gets back!)
- Order Mofongo for London Research luncheons!

That's it - see you Tuesday....
Steve
