Sacramento NWS ETA Model

This data is from the work station Eta (WSEta) model, a local high resolution experimental model, running at approximately 6-km horizontal resolution. For more details on the WSEta run in Sacramento, click here. The model physics are the same as the operational Eta run at NCEP. For a description of the operational models, please see: http://meted.ucar.edu/nwp/pcu2/index.htm

The WSEta model generates a number of different forecasts. For a complete list see here.

All times are Zulu (UTC). Unfortunately there is no way to automatically get the model run time. Each of the frames is labeled with the prediction time.
