Nearly Gaussian random variables and application to meteorology

We consider a nearly Gaussian random variable $X$ (see \cite{Lefebvre}) that, after a power transformation, the variable $X^c$ where $c=\{(2k+1)/(2j+1)\}$, $k,j=\{0,1,\dots\}$, is approximately Gaussian. This transformation is useful to model errors in temperature forecasts.
