The MetO have a lot of exciting ensemble presentations including entropy,
clustering etc. Sadly it is all for internal use, as is their excellent
ensemble system MOGREPS.


Trying to get any Met Office (model) data in the outside world at the moment
is hopeless. Weatheronline found it so sporadic that they gave up their feed
and Meteociel's is spartan at best. Meteocentre appears to have an OK feed.
So much for freedom of information!
===============

The agreement was that subsets of data were to be made freely available.
Model data is highly processed and regarded as very high commercial value by
the Met Office. Remember back in the late 1990s when radar data were highly
sought after? A compromise was reached in that 5km data would be released.
Nowadays there is 500 metre resolution and higher doppler radar data
available (for internal use). I suspect that the MetO will continue to
release older model data like EURO4 but newer products will be kept under
lock and key.
