GribStream

Real-Time Mesoscale Analysis (RTMA)

Codice GribStream: rtma

Descrizione

RTMA (Real-Time Mesoscale Analysis) è l'analisi oraria di superficie quasi in tempo reale di NOAA/NCEP. È progettata per fornire la migliore stima disponibile delle condizioni attuali circa 30-45 minuti dopo l'orario di validità.

Usa un sistema di assimilazione variazionale bidimensionale (2D-Var) che combina un campo di partenza del modello a breve termine con osservazioni di superficie, reti mesonet, boe, navi e dati derivati da radar.

L'analisi viene generata su griglie NDFD, inclusa la griglia Lambert CONUS da 2.5 km, più domini per Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico e Guam. I campi tipici includono temperatura a 2 m, punto di rugiada, vento a 10 m, direzione e raffiche, pressione superficiale, visibilità, base delle nubi e precipitazione.

RTMA aiuta a mantenere un quadro operativo ad alta risoluzione dove le osservazioni sono sparse: acque costiere, terreno complesso o zone con cambiamenti locali rapidi.

Poiché RTMA privilegia la rapidità, non include osservazioni arrivate tardi. Per un'analisi di riferimento più completa usa URMA, che riesegue RTMA circa sei ore dopo con più dati disponibili.

CEIL –Ceiling Height (m)
1 variant
NOAA GRIB2 Table 4.2-0-3

Ceiling height is the altitude of the lowest cloud base that covers a significant portion of the sky. It is a key aviation and surface-visibility metric.

  • Units: m.

DPT –Dew Point Temperature (K)
1 variant
NOAA GRIB2 Table 4.2-0-0

Dew point temperature is the temperature at which the air becomes saturated. It is a direct measure of moisture content.

  • Units: K.
  • When dew point is close to air temperature, fog or low cloud potential increases.

GUST –Wind Speed (Gust) (m/s)
1 variant
NOAA GRIB2 Table 4.2-0-2

Wind gust is the peak short-duration wind speed. It captures brief, hazardous bursts that can exceed sustained winds.

  • Units: m/s.

HGT –Geopotential Height (gpm)
1 variant
NOAA GRIB2 Table 4.2-0-3

Geopotential height is the altitude of a pressure surface in the atmosphere. It is the primary field for identifying ridges, troughs, and large‑scale flow patterns.

  • Units: gpm.

SPFH –Specific Humidity (kg/kg)
1 variant
NOAA GRIB2 Table 4.2-0-1

Specific humidity is the mass of water vapor per mass of air at the specified level. It is central to moisture transport.

  • Units: kg/kg.
  • Higher values indicate more atmospheric moisture and greater cloud or precip potential.
