Abstract Properties of the local predictability in the Lorenz system of three variables are investigated as a first step to develop a dynamical method for the skill prediction in the numerical weather forecasts instead of conventional statistical and empirical methods. As a measure of the local predictability, we adopt Lorenz's index which gives the amplification rate of the root-mean-square error during a prescribed time interval. In particular, we exert ourselves to understand a role of the quasi-stationary state in determining the variation of the Lorenz index. In an intermittent chaos regime, the Lorenz index determined for a time interval of the one return in the Poincare section has a minimum value at the onset of the laminar phase, gradually increases during the laminar phase, and abruptly attains a large value at the break of the laminar phase. If we consider the laminar phase as a quasi-stationary state generated by a local minimum point in the one-dimensional Poincare map, this characteristic ev...
