Global Circulation Means and Anomalies (Operational Data)

Operational plots contain data through (MM/DD/YYYY) = 04/18/2024
Plot update date is: Thursday, 18-Apr-2024 13:10:35 MDT

The means and anomalies in the table below are from the NCEP operational dataset. The operational climatology used to produce the anomalies is now based on data from 1991-2010. During this period, the assimilating general circulation model underwent many changes.


FORMAT:
(1) Mean and Anomaly plots are combined into ONE Two-panel plots.
(2) The One-panel mean and anomaly plots are available and accessible from the Two-panel web pages.
