NOAA RRFS forecast, 84 hour, virtual validation report

This dataset validation report plots a sample of values from the NOAA RRFS forecast, 84 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: 2026-10-11T23:39:24 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

Maps are north-up on the Lambert conformal grid, and model terrain matches known elevations.
Decoded values match an independent GRIB decoder, including where values are missing.
Fields shared with the NOAA GEFS analysis agree with it, and radiation follows the daily solar cycle.
Variables are internally consistent: dew point never exceeds temperature, minimum ≤ instantaneous ≤ maximum, and run totals equal the summed hourly totals.

Review notes

sublimation_evaporation_from_snow_surface reads +0.854 W m⁻² everywhere for the forecast initialized September 18, 2026 at 12:00 UTC, at lead 1 hour. Every other sampled forecast reads 0.
Eleven source files are unavailable for three forecasts from September 14 at 18:00 UTC to September 15 at 06:00 UTC, 2026. Each is missing three to four forecast hours of some variables. See the unavailable timestamps.
