VORTEX-95 MAPS Surface Analyses

Summary

NOAA/FSL ran the MAPS Sfc Analysis every hour at a standard resolution of about 60 km. These fields are used as part of the initialization of the O-LAPS. The data cutoff for the model runs was about 1 hour. This output includes pressure, temperature, relative humidity, u and v wind components, height, among others.
