Given all the interest at the moment in the extended range models, you
might be interested to know that you can get 'two for the price of one' as
regards the GFS package.

Currently, NCEP/EMC are running a parallel GFS suite, with upgraded data
assimilation & some other tweaks, and you can view these runs (about 90
mins after the current version) via:-

this link presents the current operational GFS model, or select

[ Run parallèle ] from the menu at the top for the parallel output.

They're also beginning to appear on the plumes ... this is for a point in
the London area ....

Apparently the new GFS formulation will be declared the operational model
sometime in January.

Thanks Martin, they will be most interesting. Yet more stuff to look at :-)
