Hello folks, We started noticing a problem last Friday with our Eta-RUC 850 windspeed analysis intercomparisons performed in real-time using 211 grid data on our web site. An example of the impact on 850 windspeed analyses can be viewed at http://taiga.geog.niu.edu/verification/ETA_RUC850S12Z21Feb99.GIF The image name needs to be typed in exactly because we do not have a specific link to this image on our web site. Our web site just has the latest analysis intercomparisons with the Eta, but I store examples without links when I see particularly large differences. The image above is a 4-panel image which is set up as: Upper left: Eta 850 windspeed analysis
The largest differences are over Saskatchewan (40 kts) but there are also large differences (~20 kts) over eastern Quebec and Newfoundland. Of concern to me since I don't know how everything works is how surface data can affect 850 windspeeds where the surface is well below 850.
