Actualizado:
4 times per day, from 0:00, 06:00, 12:00 and 18:00 UTC
Tiempo medio de Greenwich:
12:00 UTC = 06:00 MGZ
Resolutión:
32km
Parámetro:
Mean relative humidity between 0 and about 300 m above the ground level
Descripción:
This chart shows the mean relative humidity for the atmospheric layer between 0 and 300m. Although this map is less important than RH-charts (like 925 hPa or 700 hPa) it still gives some useful hints on very shallow humidity inversions and thus temperature inversions.
NWP:
Numerical weather prediction uses current weather conditions as input into mathematical models of the atmosphere to predict the weather. Although the first efforts to accomplish this were done in the 1920s, it wasn't until the advent of the computer and computer simulation that it was feasible to do in real-time. Manipulating the huge datasets and performing the complex calculations necessary to do this on a resolution fine enough to make the results useful requires the use of some of the most powerful supercomputers in the world. A number of forecast models, both global and regional in scale, are run to help create forecasts for nations worldwide. Use of model ensemble forecasts helps to define the forecast uncertainty and extend weather forecasting farther into the future than would otherwise be possible.
