In Response To: RAP 2M issues? (Rob Dale)

Hi Rob, thanks for your email on RAPv2 2m biases and the link for the Iowa State website. We agree that there still is some 2m warm bias in daytime with RAPv2 but think it is clearly better overall than RAPv1. There is more RAPv2 2m info in a Feb 2014 NWS webinar at http://ruc.noaa.gov/pdf/RAPv2-NWSwebinar-18feb2014-FINAL.pdf, and I also just put together a little recent look at RAPv2 and RAPv3 surface verification at http://ruc.noaa.gov/pdf/RAPv2-temp-dewpoint-verif-Apr2014.pdf. Thanks again and please post again and feel free to add RAPv3 and HRRR to your watch list. Stan B.
