Re: [conduit] Removal of 500 and 1000 hPa height anomaly fields from GFS

Yes, this is a bit disappointing because I've had that product showing for years also.  It can always be re-created from opening some reanalysis product that is an average, but the ease of plotting a single 2D field, which hardly added any real volume to the files, was made it so attractive.

Hi everyone,

 

With today’s implementation of the GFS upgrades, the 500 and 1000 hPa height anomaly grids are no longer part of the output.  This was advertised in the NWS Technical Implementation Notice, so it is not a surprise … but up till now, we made use of these grids in our web products.

 

Does anyone know of another quick-and-easy online source of either anomaly or mean grids for these two height levels?  I can put something together via the CFSR, but that will take a wee bit of time …

 

Cheers,

 

Kevin
