NAM MOS - MDL
NAM MOS is a suite of text-bulletin and graphical products developed and supported by MDL. Both product types include meteorolgical guidance for a suite of variables (Temperature, Dewpoint, Precipitation Amount, etc.). Station-based MOS provides guidance at meteorolgcial station locations (such as airports), while gridded MOS prodvides these products on a grid. Values are based on outputs of the
North American Model (NAM) numerical model
, and then calibrated using the
MOS technique
, which wasdeveloped by MDL. The MOS equations relating model output to observations have been developed using over 1600 meteorolgical stations' observations.
Full suites of products are produced for short-range forecasts (6-72 hours in advance) for meteorological stations in the Continential United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Limited suites of products are produced for marine meteorological stations.
