Here are some details from Curtis Alexander: Experimental and Operational RAP and HRRR users, ** RAP version four (v4) and HRRR version three (v3) now operational effective starting with the 12 UTC 12 July 2018 cycle ** The RAPv4/HRRRv3 have completed their evaluation period and the operational implementation took place at NCEP this morning, effective starting with the 12 UTC 12 July 2018 cycle. The NCEP parallel grids and graphics have been discontinued and the operational grids and graphics now reflect the changes that were in the parallel grids and graphics. The service change notice (SCN) related to the underlying science and output changes in the now-operational RAPv4 and HRRRv3 are contained in the document at: http://www.nws.noaa.gov/os/notification/scn18-58rap_hrrr.htm We would like to thank all the users and collaborators that have helped in the RAP and HRRR development and implementation process. ESRL/GSD will continue to produce real-time experimental RAP and HRRR grids and web graphics as we continue the processes of model development for a future RAP and HRRR upgrade at NCEP. Additional updates will be provided when changes are made to the real-time experimental RAP and HRRR at ESRL. For reference, here are a few resources for accessing and using the RAP/HRRR data: (1) GRIDS: The operational NCEP RAPv4/HRRRv3 GRIB2 grids are available at: http://nomads.ncep.noaa.gov/pub/data/nccf/com/rap/prod http://nomads.ncep.noaa.gov/pub/data/nccf/com/hrrr/prod (both CONUS and Alaska domains) The real-time experimental ESRL/GSD RAP/HRRR (RAPv5/HRRRv4 prototype) GRIB2 grids are available (password protected, access available upon request) at: ftp://gsdftp.fsl.noaa.gov/rap (RAP) ftp://gsdftp.fsl.noaa.gov/hrrr (CONUS HRRR) ftp://gsdftp.fsl.noaa.gov/hrrr_ak/alaska (Alaska HRRR) Additional real-time experimental ESRL/GSD products: ftp://gsdftp.fsl.noaa.gov/hrrr_hi/hawaii (Hawaii HRRR) ftp://gsdftp.fsl.noaa.gov/rap_smoke (RAP wildfire smoke) ftp://gsdftp.fsl.noaa.gov/hrrr_smoke/conus (CONUS HRRR wildfire smoke) ftp://gsdftp.fsl.noaa.gov/hrrre/conus/ (CONUS HRRR ensemble) ftp://gsdftp.fsl.noaa.gov/hrrr/conus/wrftwo_ens/ (CONUS HRRR time-lagged ensemble) (2) WEB GRAPHICS: The operational NCEP RAPv4/HRRRv3 graphics: http://mag.ncep.noaa.gov/model-guidance-model-parameter.php?group=Model%20Guidance&model=RAP&area=CONUS http://mag.ncep.noaa.gov/model-guidance-model-parameter.php?group=Model%20Guidance&model=HRRR&area=CONUS The real-time ESRL/GSD RAP/HRRR graphics (contains both current and archived operational and experimental products): Operational RAPv4/HRRRv3: https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/RAP/Welcome.cgi?dsKey=rap_ncep_jet (RAP) https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/hrrr/HRRR/Welcome.cgi?dsKey=hrrr_ncep_jet (CONUS HRRR) https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/hrrr/ALASKA/Welcome.cgi?dsKey=hrrr_ak_ncep_jet (Alaska HRRR) Real-time Experimental RAPv5/HRRRv4 prototype: https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/RAP/Welcome.cgi?dsKey=rap_jet (RAP) https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/hrrr/HRRR/Welcome.cgi?dsKey=hrrr_jet (CONUS HRRR) https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/hrrr/ALASKA/Welcome.cgi?dsKey=hrrr_ak_jet (Alaska HRRR) Additional real-time experimental ESRL/GSD products: https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/hrrr/HAWAII/Welcome.cgi?dsKey=hrrr_hi_jet (Hawaii HRRR) https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/RAPsmoke/ (RAP wildfire smoke) https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/hrrr/HRRRsmoke/ (CONUS HRRR wildfire smoke) https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/hrrr/HRRRE/ (CONUS HRRR ensemble) https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/hrrr/hrrrtle/ (CONUS HRRR time-lagged ensemble) (3) INFORMATION: Additional resources for information (updated as additional information becomes available): https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov (RAP website information) https://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/hrrr (HRRR website information) https://ruc.noaa.gov/forum/eval (user forum) https://vlab.ncep.noaa.gov/group/hrrr/home (Virtual Lab Community) Please contact curtis.alexander@noaa.gov for subscription to this email notification list.
