 <!-- Provide a quick summary of what the model is/does. -->
 
 Here, we introduce the **Artificial Intelligence Forecasting System (AIFS)**, a data driven forecast
 model developed by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). 
 
-The release of AIFS Single v1.0 marks the first operationally supported AIFS model. Version 1
-supersedes the existing experimental version, [0.2.1 AIFS-single](https://huggingface.co/ecmwf/aifs-single-0.2.1). 
-The new version, 1.0, brings changes to the AIFS Single model, including among many others:
-
-- Improved performance for upper-level atmospheric variables (AIFS Single still uses 13 pressure-levels, so this improvement mainly refers to 50 and 100 hPa)
-- Improved skill for total precipitation.
-- Additional output variables, including 100 meter winds, snow-fall, surface solar-radiation and land variables such as soil-moisture and soil-temperature.
+The release of AIFS Single v1.1 represents a slight modification to the AIFS model. Version 1.1
+supersedes the existing operational version, [1.1.0 AIFS-single](https://huggingface.co/ecmwf/aifs-single-1.0). 
+The new version, 1.1, brings minor changes to the v1.0 model. These changes mainly correspond to  the removal of 
+spurious rainfall points caused by incorrect soil moisture loss weighting during training of the v1.0 model.
