مستخلص: The Warn-on-Forecast System (WoFS) is a convection-allowing ensemble prediction system designed to primarily provide guidance on thunderstorm hazards from the meso-beta to storm-scale in space and from several hours to less than one hour in time. This article describes unique aspects of WoFS guidance product design and application to short-term severe weather forecasting. General probabilistic forecasting concepts for convection allowing ensembles, including the use of neighborhood, probability of exceedance, percentile, and paintball products, are reviewed and the design of real-time WoFS guidance products are described. Recommendations for effectively using WoFS guidance for severe weather prediction include evaluation of the quality of WoFS storm-scale analyses, interrogating multiple probabilistic guidance products to efficiently span the envelope of guidance provided by ensemble members, and application of conceptual models of convective storm dynamics and interaction with the broader mesoscale environment. Part II of this study provides specific examples where WoFS guidance can provide useful or potentially misleading guidance on convective storm likelihood and evolution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
