Dataset
NWP-Euro: Met Office European Atmospheric High Resolution Model data
Abstract
This dataset contains model data from the Met Office Unified Model (UM) operational Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) European high resolution model. This is a regional downscaled configuration of the Unified Model, covering a European domain, with hourly forecast data covering the period T+1 to T+54 hours. With a resolution of approximately 0.04 degrees it is able to produce selected hourly data covering the first 48 hours at surface level and at standard pressure levels four times a day. The model’s initial state is kept close to the real atmosphere by starting from a downscaled global starting condition.
This archive currently holds data from April 2016 onwards but data will be back populated for earlier years.
