NCEP data Status
NAM Ingest Sat 02:46 GMT : 00z nam data is ready.
Preparation 02:55z: 00z ingest has completed.
GFS Ingest Sat 04:08 GMT : 00z gfs data is ready.
Preparation 04:59z: 00z ingest has completed.
RAP Ingest Thu 14:44 GMT : 12z rap data is ready.
Preparation Rapid refresh model: data processing for WRF not yet working here.
Runs are being revised for new hardware and ingest.
10-km (primary) and 15-km (quick-look) progs are being evaluated, and one 2-km forecast.
*2-km WRF is run for 15h on the 12z cycle, and 27h on the 00z cycle (until 03z each day)
[lower priority used for 2-km runs during periods of dull ("fair") weather; run later]
