Summary
Short Description:
The Met Office Global Ensemble Prediction System (MOGREPS-G) provides forecasts
for the entire globe up to ten days ahead, supporting uncertainty quantification
in Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP). This ensemble system runs multiple
configurations of the Unified Model, the flagship NWP model used for both
weather and climate applications. Forecasts are generated four times daily at
00:00, 06:00, 12:00 and 18:00 UTC.
