NCEP Medium Range Forecast Model Surface Fluxes
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/7.111

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 derived surface flux fields on gaussian
grids. The initial analysis and forecasts to 48 hours (in 12 hour steps) are
available in GRIB format.
