NCEP's non hydrostatic mesoscale model: Forecast guidance and transition to WRF

Thomas Black, John Michalakes

Research output: Contribution to journal › Conference article › peer-review

Abstract

The forecasts of NCEP's Nonhydrostatic Mesoscale Model (NMM) in the weather research and forecast system (WRF) are discussed. The NMM does not have its own data assimilation system and with its high spatial resolution is expected to augment the guidance of the Eta model in describing finer scale features and circulations. The differences between the Eta and NMM forecasts on a daily basis on the synoptic scale are relatively small. The NMM has been incorporated into the WRF infrastucture as a prelude to the Hi-Res Window forecast slot.
