NCEP Medium Range Forecast model output on Isentropic Surfaces
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/7.108

Summary
The U.S. National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) routinely ran
the Medium Range Forecast (MRF) model twice daily (00 and 12 UTC) during the
ACE-1 period. This dataset is the 3-dimensional model analysis and forecast
grids on isentropic surfaces. The initial analysis and forecasts to 48 hours
(in 12 hour steps) are available in GRIB format. This output includes
pressure, Montgomery Stream Function, virtual potential temperature, u and v
wind components, among others.
