Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.

[ldm-users] Problems with GFS model data

With the 12Z upgrade to the GFS model. I have notice a serious problem with
the data. Many of the fields are not smoothed and are very noisy, which is
causing problems for display applications. I am attaching a couple of
samples.

Is anyone else seeing these problems?

 It's as if the smoothing in the GFS post-processor smoothing is not
working. I seemed to remember this happening a year or two ago after an
upgrade to the GFS, but this time it seems much worse.
