NOAA RRFS forecast, 18 hour, virtual validation report

This dataset validation report plots a sample of values from the NOAA RRFS forecast, 18 hour, 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: 2026-10-11T20:29:44 UTC

Summary

This dataset has been validated and is ready for experimental use. NOAA RRFS/REFS is pre-operational and under development, so expect some changes to model output. Some source files are unavailable for forecasts from September 14 to 15, 2026.

What looks good
