Real-Time Ensemble Forecasting at the University of Illinois
Welcome to the UI Atmospheric Sciences real-time forecasting site.
Real-time WRF forecasts not yet operational on new hardware, being worked on.
After work on this torpedoed by end-of-semester deadlines, I'll return to it in a few days. Runs should be up by the middle of next week (May 23). (Wed 5/16 noon)

If you don't see any images, perhaps a new run cycle is about to start. Change from "Cycle: Current" to "12h ago" to see forecasts from the previous cycle.
