RUC data

Does the DAWS work with RUC data and can you import data into the program? This would work great for severe weather prameters!

Let me know and thanks for you time!

Would anyone know where I can find a good site to import RUC data into DAWS?

Thanks

http://nomads.ncdc.noaa.gov/ is probably you're best bet.

Be sure and use the 211 domain.

Hasn`t the archive NOAAport service been discontinued? in favour of the new resolution models (nam and gfs). Where else would we go for grid 211 ?

Poke around in here and see what you can come up with:

ftp://ftpprd.ncep.noaa.gov/pub/data/nccf/com/

Or you can try poking around in http://weather.noaa.gov/pub/SL.us008001/ST.opnl/ too.

Wonder if NOMADS was discontinued because of too much traffic?

Just a thought:)

I havent tried to download this data. With that being said, which file extention do you download so you can produce models with DAWS... Thanks!

Pat, how do you import those because they have a different file extension? Do they need to be converted somehow?
