Experimental Locally Run WRF Model at NWS Eureka
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 Eureka. This high resolution model is running the Advanced Research WRF (WRF-ARW) dynamical core at approximately a 3.5-km horizontal resolution. For more details on the WRF run in Eureka, click the "Model setup details" link below or see the Product Document Description . More information on the WRF-ARW model can be found at: http://www.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/users.
