Experimental Locally Run Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Environmental Modeling System (EMS)

Experimental Locally Run WRF Model at NWS Sacramento

This data is from the Weather Research and Forecasting Environmental Modeling System (WRF-EMS). The model is running locally experimentally at the Forecast Office in Sacramento. This high resolution model is running the Non-Hydrostatic Mesoscale (WRF-NMM) dynamical core at approximately a 5-km horizontal resolution. For more details on the WRF run in Sacramento, click here or see the Product Document Description. More information on the WRF-NMM model can be found at: http://www.dtcenter.org/wrf-nmm/users/.
Please provide comments about this experimental model run locally at the NWS Sacramento to the webmaster.

Latest model run: 18Z on 080916
