AFWA MWFM Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/92.087

Summary
This data set contains images developed by the Air Force Weather Agency (AFWA)
from their Mountain Wave Forecast Model (MWFM) which uses the NOAA/NCEP Global
Forecast System (GFS) model for initialization. The products include plots at
the 70 and 100 hPa levels and the 'S' Layer Advance Turbulence (SLAT) factor
which is used to determine the intensity of turbulence present in the mixing
layer. The products were developed at the 00 and 12 UTC times and are
available from 2 March to 25 May 2006. The forecasts are available every six
hours out to 72 hours.
