NBM Text Products Information

The NBM text bulletins take data from the gridded NBM forecasts and generate data for weather stations from the closest usable grid point. Bulletins are available for over 9,000 land and marine stations in the CONUS, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, and Oceanic-domains. Not all elements may be available for all stations. All regions (including both land and marine stations) are included in the same product.

Five different products are available: NBM Hourly (NBH, 1-25 hrs), NBM Short (NBS, 3-hourly, 6-72 hrs), NBM Extended (NBE, 12-Hourly, 24-192 hrs), NBM Super-Extended (NBX, 12-Hourly, 204-264 hrs), and NBM Probabilistic (NBP, 12-Hourly, 24-264 hrs). More information regarding these products and available stations can be found in the menu on the right, as well a link to the 4x daily text bulletins site (where full hourly data via NOMADS is also linked).
