Updated 25/06/2025

The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Global Forecast System (GFS) gridded analysis datasets for the period from Dec 2004 until the current day. The NCEP GFS is a global spectral data assimilation and forecast model system giving 6 hourly (00, 06, 12 and 18 UTC) atmospheric variables at 26 levels with a resolution of .5 degree. The GFS model superceeded the AVN in October 2002. Data is stored with the following folder convention {gfs2YYMM (YY=year, MM=month)}, this archive is updated on a daily basis.
