This video, based on data from the NOAA Global Forecast System weather model, shows global winds and predicted amounts of precipitation for the storm forecast to hit the Eastern U.S. January 22-23, 2016.This model, which provides three-hour time increments for dozens of global variables, is one of the most widely used numerical forecast models in the world and is updated every six hours. The winds are depicted using tracers to show wind speed and direction. This particular variable shown here re

This is the evening run of the Global Ensemble Forecast System. It is a weather model that generates 21 separate forecasts (ensemble members) to address uncertainties in the input data and the limitations of the model itself. In simple terms, it gives a range of all track possibilities. What is important about tonight's run is that most of the models are converging on an eastern Gulf track, which includes Florida and even bypassing Florida to the south is not impossible. They are all buying into

NOAA's powerful Global Forecast System model was upgraded today, providing forecasters with a more accurate 4-D picture of how a weather system will evolve. The upgrade is the latest of a number of model improvements rolling out this spring and summer, thanks to increased supercomputing power NOAA acquired earlier this year.
