NOAA GEFS forecast, 35 day, 0.5 degree, virtual validation report

This dataset validation report plots a sample of values from the NOAA GEFS forecast, 35 day, 0.5 degree, virtual dataset over time and across space, comparing where possible to a previously validated reference dataset. It also reports the quantity of unavailable values and their associated timestamps. These analyses are one layer of a multi-layered dataset validation process we perform at dynamical.org and also provide users a preview of the dataset contents.

Report generation start time: 2026-09-19T03:28:03 UTC

Summary

This dataset has been reviewed and is ready for use. Source files are missing at 22 initialisation times, and a few variables need care in how they are read; both are detailed in the review notes below.

Availability

The plot below shows the availability of each variable over time — light red marks unavailable data, dark green marks present data.

Availability was not assessed for pressure_level/icing_probability and pressure_level/icing_severity: the probe reads each group variable at its middle level, 350 mb, and icing is published only at 800, 700, 600, 500, 400 and 300 mb. See "Sampling and coverage of these checks" below.

comment Uses a right-moving storm motion in both hemispheres, so southern hemisphere values are positive-mean rather than mirrored. Some source values reach magnitudes near 100,000 m2 s-2, far above the roughly 1,500 m2 s-2 physical ceiling for this quantity. Mask absolute values above 2,000.
