Weather Models

[TWCToday]

Figured I would post a topic with useful links to model guidance. Feel free to post any links you may find as well.

I use this website.

I'll toss out three additional links I use for weather models:

Penn State E-Wall:  http://www.meteo.psu.edu/~gadomski/ewall.html
RAP from UCAR:  http://www.rap.ucar.edu/weather/model/
MOS (Model Output Statistics):  http://www.nws.noaa.gov/mdl/synop/products/bullform.all.htm

lol, that's gonna take awhile to navigate and understand

I understand that it's not so user-friendly, but I'll gladly help anyone with questions as I've used that site for eight years.  Don't forget the other links mentioned above, too.

I usually use this site when I do look at models: www.weather.cod.edu

Its a really cool program. Isn't AWIPS the program the NWS uses?

Yes, that's correct, but the AWIPS system has been upgraded since that simulation was released.  There's far more tools that I'm able to use to look up weather data than what you all see in this simulation, but it still gives you an idea.

Does this model accurately predict radar enough to rely on it? http://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/mmb/mpyle/cent4km/conus/00/

I wouldn't hold myself to it.  That model can make some very realistic radar simulations, but the timing and placement can still be considerably off from reality.  It's better to use for alerting you of what kind of convective activity may be expected.

Here is a extremely easy to use website for models:

I highly recommend using this site.
