Special notice

This web page is being replaced by my new WRF Ensemble page. The plots on this page will be discontinued before the end of April 2014.

GFS Ensemble Plots

Here are plots derived from the NCEP Global Ensemble Forecast System. The GFS is run around twenty times using varying initial conditions. From these different initial conditions, different global forecasts are produced. These plots show small subsets of the ensemble forecasts around Florida. The Melbourne plots show winds and other conditions for the individual ensemble members. From these plots, you can begin to judge the uncertainty of the forecasts. The maps show animations of the sea level pressure over Florida.

The current update schedule for these plots:
