  1. Hurricane GFDL HWRF (NMM) Where We Fit Into NCEP’s Model SuiteItems in BROWN are MMB’s worry CLIMATE CFS Oceans HYCOM WaveWatch III Coupled GFS + MOM3/4 ~3.5B Obs / Day ‘Mostly’ Satellite +Radar North American Mesoscale NMM Dispersion, Ash, Smoke & Dust ARL’s HYSPLIT Global Forecast System Global Data Assimilation Severe Weather NMM + ARW Regional Data Assimilation Short-Range Ensemble Forecast Air Quality NMM + ARW + ETA + RSM NAM + EPA/ ARL’s CMAQ North American Ensemble Forecast System GFS + Canadian Global +… Rapid Update for Aviation GSD’s RUC Very Short Range Ensemble Forecasts Time-Lagged RUC+NAM

  2. NAM WRF-NMM (Egrid) GSI analysis 4/Day = 6 hr update Forecasts to 84 hours 12 km horizontal 60 layers with 2 mb top 12 hr pre-forecast assimilation period with 3hr updates (catch-up) RUC Non-WRF RUC model RUC 3DVAR analysis 24/Day = hourly update Forecasts to 18 hours 13 km horizontal 50 layers with 50 mb top Continuous forward cycle with no pre-forecast assimilation period 2009 RUC-13 CONUS domain

  3. NAM NEMS based NMM Bgrid replaces Egrid Parent remains at 12 km Multiple Nests Run to ~48hr ~4 km CONUS nest ~6 km Alaska nest ~3 km HI & PR nests,and/or a~1.5-2km DHS/FireWeather/IMET are possible Rapid Refresh WRF-based ARW NCEP’s GSI analysis Expanded 13 km Domain to include Alaska Experimental 3 km HRRR 2010-2011 WRF-Rapid Refresh domain – 2010 RUC-13 CONUS domain Original CONUS domain Experimental 3 km HRRR

  4. NAM/Rapid Refresh ENSEMBLE (NRRE) NEMS-based NMMB & ARW prediction models Both initialized with same GSI analysis code Common NAM parent domain at 10-12 km Initially ~6 member ensemble made up of equal numbers of NMMB- & ARW-based configurations Hourly updated with forecasts to 24 hours NMMB & ARW control data assimilation cycles with 3 hour pre-forecast period (catch-up) with hourly updating NAM 84 hr forecasts are extensions of the 00z, 06z, 12z, & 18z runs. 2012-2013

  5. High Resolution Rapid Refresh ENSEMBLE (HRRRE) Each member of NRRE contains 3 km CONUS and Alaskan nests Control runs initialized with radar data Positions NWS+NCEP+ESRL to Provide NextGen Enroute A N D Terminal guidance Provide PROBABILITY guidance Improve assimilation capabilities with radar & satellite Tackle Warn-on-Forecast as resolutions evolve towards ~1 km NAM nests are extensions of the 00z, 06z, 12z & 18Z runs. Both NRRE and HRRRE Require Bigger NCEP Computer 2012-2013
