NOAA NSSL MRMS 0C, -5C, -10C, -15C and -20C Reflectivity Data

Project:

Summary

Reflectivity Data for 0C, -5C, -10C, -15C and -20C are contained in this dataset from the ICICLE (In-Cloud ICing and Large-drop Experiment) domain in tarred and gzipped NetCDF format. This experimental product is the first iteration and may contain some artifacts/oddities. The domain covers only the area of the ICICLE field campaign. Spatial resolution: 0.01º Latitude (~1.11 km) x 0.01º Longitude (~1.01 km at 25ºN and 0.73 km at 49ºN). Data is sorted from top to bottom and east to west. The upper left corner is at 55ºN and -130ºW. No MRMS data are available prior to 5 February due to the federal government shutdown in early 2019.

Any public presentations/publications using this data must include NSSL as co-author.

Archive note

NOTE: This is a large dataset. Order limitations are 32GB per order, so please check file sizes when ordering.  

IMPORTANT: For each order, unzip and untar the files in a separate directory with sufficient size (1-2TB) to ensure that files are not overwritten. Some of these files may untar/unzip to hundreds of Gigabytes.
