QPFs depict the amount of liquid precipitation expected to fall in a defined period of time. In the case of snow or ice, QPF represents the amount of liquid that will be measured when the precipitation is melted. Precipitation amounts can vary significantly over short distances, especially when thunderstorms occur, and for this reason QPFs issued by the WPC are defined as the expected "areal average" (on a 20 x 20 km grid) in inches. WPC creates QPFs out to seven days into the future. This dataset includes multiple time ranges, including 6-, 24-, 48-, 72-, 120- and 168-hour QPFs. Six and 24-hour QPFs are available through Day 3 (72 hours); 48-hour QPFs are produced for the Day 1-2, Day 4-5, and Day 6-7 periods; 72-hour QPFs are available for the Day 1-3 period; 120-hour and 168-hour QPFs encompass the Day 1-5 and Day 1-7 periods, respectively. Provides a national forecast of precipitation for multiple time ranges through 7 days. onGoing Mark Klein DOC/NOAA/NWS/NCEP/WPC > Weather Prediction Center, National Centers for Environmental Prediction, National Weather Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce Meteorologist 301-683-1490 mark.klein@noaa.gov Monday-Friday, 8am-4pm Eastern Time pointOfContact continual http://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/fill_94qwbg.gif WPC QPF GIF EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > PRECIPITATION > PRECIPITATION AMOUNT EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > PRECIPITATION > RAIN theme NASA Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Earth Science Keywords 2013 publication Version 8.0 NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/GCDC/GCMD > Global Change Master Directory, Global Change Data Center, Earth Sciences Division, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center, NASA http://gcmd.gsfc.nasa.gov/learn/keywords.html HTTP Web Browser NASA GCMD Keyword Community Page Overview of the NASA GCMD Keywords. information publisher Atmospheric - Surface - Precipitation theme Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) 2010 publication GCOS-138 (August 2010) UN/WMO > World Meteorological Organization, United Nations http://www.wmo.int/pages/prog/gcos/index.php?name=EssentialClimateVariables HTTP Web Browser GCOS Essential Climate Variables Overview of the GCOS Essential Climate Variables. information publisher Continent > North America > United States Of America place NASA Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Earth Science Keywords 2013 publication Version 8.0 NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/GCDC/GCMD > Global Change Master Directory, Global Change Data Center, Earth Sciences Division, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center, NASA http://gcmd.gsfc.nasa.gov/learn/keywords.html HTTP Web Browser NASA GCMD Keyword Community Page Overview of the NASA GCMD Keywords. information publisher VERTICAL LOCATION > LAND SURFACE stratum NASA Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Earth Science Keywords 2013 publication Version 8.0 NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/GCDC/GCMD > Global Change Master Directory, Global Change Data Center, Earth Sciences Division, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center, NASA http://gcmd.gsfc.nasa.gov/learn/keywords.html HTTP Web Browser NASA GCMD Keyword Community Page Overview of the NASA GCMD Keywords. information publisher Horizontal Resolution Range: 10 km - < 50 km or approximately .09 degree - < .5 degree dataResolution NASA Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Earth Science Keywords 2013 publication Version 8.0 NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/GCDC/GCMD > Global Change Master Directory, Global Change Data Center, Earth Sciences Division, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center, NASA http://gcmd.gsfc.nasa.gov/learn/keywords.html HTTP Web Browser NASA GCMD Keyword Community Page Overview of the NASA GCMD Keywords. information publisher QPF Quantitative Precipitation Forecast Precipitation Forecast theme otherRestrictions Cite this dataset when used as a source: Issued by NOAA/NWS Weather Prediction Center (WPC) otherRestrictions None otherRestrictions None, but citation of the product is required vector 20000 eng; USA climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere Data are processed on a Linux operating system using a meteorological graphics package called GEMPAK. 1 -130.0 -63.0 22.0 55.0 ground condition 1960-01-01 6 QPF ArcGIS Map Service 2015-03-09 creation 2015-06-01 publication DOC/NOAA/NWS/NCEP/IDP-GIS > Integrated Dissemination Program GIS, National Weather Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce idp.gis.support@noaa.gov publisher Here goes description about the map service. Ira Grafman will fill this information.Example: A map service showing ship tracks of multibeam bathymetry surveys archived at NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center. NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center is the U.S. national archive for multibeam bathymetric data and presently holds over 2300 surveys received from sources worldwide, including the U.S. academic fleet via the Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) program. In addition to deep-water data, the multibeam database also includes hydrographic multibeam survey data from the National Ocean Service (NOS). This map service shows navigation for multibeam bathymetric surveys in NGDC's archive. Older surveys are colored orange, and more recent recent surveys are green.

These models produce forecasts of various atmospheric phenomena, including precipitation amounts. In addition to the models, forecasters analyze the current state of the atmosphere using surface and upper air weather observations, satellite imagery and weather radar data. 1. Meteorologists analyze the current state of the atmosphere, using surface and upper air weather observations, satellite imagery and weather radar data. 2. Evaluate numerical model forecasts of atmospheric phenomena, including moisture, atmospheric instability, and vertical lift to form a conceptual model of how the weather will evolve. WPC has access to the full suite of operational and ensemble model guidance from modeling centers in the U.S., Canada, and Europe. 3. Evaluate run to run trends in the numerical model QPFs (multiple runs of each model are stored onsite) and take into account known model biases 4. Forecasters determine which models are showing a reasonable amount of precipitation in roughly the correct place and time. Those choices serve as the starting point for QPFs, but forecasters also make manual adjustments based on their experience. 5. QPF is drawn using GEMPAK meteorological graphics software, after which additional software post-processes the forecasts into a variety of formats (shapefiles, KML, gif, etc...) for use by other National Weather Service offices and the public.
