The NCEP operational Global Forecast System analysis and forecast grids are on a 0.25 by 0.25 global latitude longitude grid. Grids include analysis and forecast time steps at a 3 hourly interval from 0 to 240, and a 12 hourly interval from 240 to 384. Model forecast runs occur at 00, 06, 12, and 18 UTC daily. For real-time data access please use the NCEP data server [http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/products/gfs/].
NOTE: This dataset now has a direct, continuously updating copy located on AWS (https://noaa-gfs-bdp-pds.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html [https://noaa-gfs-bdp-pds.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html]). Therefore, the RDA will stop updating this dataset in early 2025
