Information
  • The RAP runs every hour; these maps go to 21 h. The newest cycle fills in as NOAA publishes it; this page picks up new hours by itself.
  • LAGGED (6 RUNS) shows the current run beside the five before it, all valid at the same time: how the forecast for that moment has changed run to run.
  • SAVE LOOP makes an MP4 or GIF of what you are looking at, for all the frames or just a range, in your browser; SAVE IMAGE saves the map on screen, or the six lagged runs on one PNG. Nothing is uploaded.
  • A service of weathermodels.com. The maps are created from the RAP's 13-km grid (NCEP awp130). Hail, updraft helicity, maximum reflectivity and smoke are not in that file, so they are not drawn.
