CLPX NOAA FSL Rapid Update Cycle 20 km (RUC-20) Dataset, Version 1

Version 1 eng; usa
  • Abstract
    The Rapid Update Cycle analysis/model system at a 20-km horizontal resolution (RUC20) provides short-range numerical weather guidance for general forecasting, as well as for the special short-term needs of aviation and severe-weather forecasting. This data set consists of 60 meteorological and soil parameters at 50 computational levels.
