Numerical Weather Prediction
Models we provide:
GFS || GME || NGPS || ECMWF || Bracknell (UKMO) || JMA || GEM || USAF ||
Snow-Forecast || MM5 EMA
Description: Which is known for GFS model. This model is the most accurate model on the web for the Middle East. GFS produce many parameters that's the forecasters need, with resolution of 0.6 degree. GFS runs four time daily 00Z and 12Z (main), 06Z and 18Z and give data up to 384 hours.
Update: 4 times per day, from 3:30, 09:30, 15:30 and 21:30 GMT

Description: Known for the OFFENBACH Model, and this model give 72HRS free and after that there is a must to pay to get the data. The OFFENBACH model in the winter is very accurate, and sometimes it's being the most accurate. The main problem for this model is that it's issued is only 00Z and 12Z and give every 12HRS for 4 days and after that give every 24HRS.
Update: 4:30 GMT and 16:30 GMT

Description: Known for the NGPS Model. This model issued twice a day 00Z and 12Z, and it more accurate in the autumn, spring and summer. In the winter it's not accurate especially in the rain and geopotential data.
Update: 7:00 GMT and 19:00 GMT

Description: Known for ECMWF model. This model issued twice a day 00Z and 12Z. This model give data from 72HRS up to 168HRS freely, before the 72HRS need fees from its web site. 500hPa from +24 HRS to +144 HRS are available from Indian Meteorological Department, you find it when you enter to the model. ECMWF Known for the very accurate Medium and Long-range forecast and a good signal in the very active and violent cold systems in the winter in the near future.
Update: 10:00 GMT and 23:00 GMT

Description: Known for Bracknell or UKMO. Also this model issued twice a day 00Z and 12Z for 144HRS. UKMO Also Known for the very accurate Medium and Long-range forecast and a good signal in the very active and violent cold systems in the winter in the near future as the ECMWF.
Update: 7:00 GMT and 19:00 GMT

Description: Know for JMA Model. This model also updated once a day (12Z). This model is accurate for the medium or long-range forecast.
Update: 18:30 GMT

Description: Known for GEM Model. This model update at 00Z. The GEM gives: sea level pressure, 500hPa geopotential and temperature, and 850hPa geopotential and temperature as parameters.
Update: 4:30 GMT (Main)
