In Response To: When do RUC soundings become available? (Patrick Gatlin)

Patrick,

The availability of Op40 analyses appears to vary somewhat. For most hours, it seems to be available 36 minutes after the valid. At 0 and 12 UTC, there is a delay, because the model waits for RAOB data to become available. Other hours may apparently be delayed as well.

For instance, this morning the analyses valid at each of the following hours was available at the following times

valid hour available at
00 0114
01 0136
02 0305
03 0336
04 0436
05 0536
06 0636
07 0736
08 0844
09 0956
10 1038
11 1136
12 1314
13 1336
14 1443
15 1556
16 1636

Hope this helps.

-Bill
