Re: his tweet was using 06Z - O/T

Somehow I managed to delete the vast majority of what I posted in that post.

I managed to save a backup of it. Let's see if this works. So many errors all of a sudden.





I'm not sure where he would be getting 6Z Euro data at 144 hours.

His tweet was at 9:31am EDT. The 0Z initialized Euro for tropical cyclone tracks came out at 2:55am EDT I think:
https://www.ecmwf.int/en/forecasts/documentation-and-support/data-delivery/dissemination-schedule

That schedule:

I-iii Tropical cyclones (Post-processed Products)
12 UTC based 18:55 UTC
00 UTC based 06:55 UTC

12Z should come out at 2:55pm EDT.

But he is probably talking about something that was derived, not those actual tracks, since he says exclusive. Other Euro data comes out sooner at 0z and 12Z than the tracks.

I don't see Euro products being available past 90 hours for 6Z and 18Z on that ECMWF dissemination page though. The longer Euro comes out at 0Z and 12Z.

I see his tweet here has something through 90 hours:
https://twitter.com/RyanMaue/status/1167055470781247490

Then the reply has something from weather.us, another site, but I can't get the rapid Euro on that site because you have to pay there too. It has through at least 6 days on that image in the tweet which would be 144 hours.

I haven't researched it further, but perhaps it's derived from other data too, interpolated in some way or something else, I don't know.

I know people have to make money, but I really hate it when you have to pay for weather data.

He links to something you have to login for. (pay)

The free data on his site doesn't give you the last 48 hours of runs. THE FOLLOWING LINK IS TWO DAYS OLD:
https://weathermodels.com/index.php?r=site%2Fpreview&mode=animator&set=14-km%20EPS%20Global%20Cyclones&area=East%20Coast%20USA&param=Ens%20MSLP%20Spaghettios&offset=4

That only has 0Z and 12Z data. I can't figure out where he would get the other data past 90 hours at 6Z and 18Z. He might say on his site somewhere or a tweet how it is done.
