Relationship between NWS and FSL

Better forecasts of surface conditions require model- based solutions

Why run local models? High resolution is a very good thing, but centrally-generated forecasts require high- volume communications. Forecasters are scientifically stimulated. Better forecasts. Duh.

Why not run local models? Expensive? Labor-intensive? Unreliable? Unproven?

Data sources for LAPS in AWIPS RUC provides first guess Surface: metars, buoys, satellite IR for  T, local obs via LDAD (v4.2) Upper winds: profiler (not ACARS, WSR88D) Clouds: WSR88D reflectivity, satellite IR+vis, metars (not pireps, radiometers) Water vapor: cloud fields  (not ACARS, radiometers, GPS)

What LAPS is, what it does Hourly 3d analyses of state variables and derived fields Grid positioned with WFO at center (localization) 61x61 gridpoints at 10-km resolution 21 levels in vertical every 50 mb 3d cloud type, % coverage, mixing ratios of cloud liquid, cloud ice, rain, snow, and graupel; also reflectivity Derived sfc fields: CAPE, LI, moisture convergence, etc.
