I was wondering if you would be able to distribute to your colleagues
and customers information regarding a new website NCO has developed to
access graphical model guidance? We have been working for the last 18
months on a more intuitive website that would better meet the needs of
our customers. We are planning on sending out an official Public
Information Statement, and I thought of Unidata to assist us in
spreading the word to the University Community.
We envisioned the notification to look like the following:
The National Centers for Environmental Prediction’s (NCEP) Central
Operations is seeking user comments on the new experimental Model
Analyses and Guidance (MAG) website, located at:
http://mag.ncep.noaa.gov
This site is an upgrade of the current experimental Model Analysis and
Forecast (MAF) site. The MAG has been designed to improve the user
experience by creating a more interactive interface that showcases the
NWS observational database and suite of numerical model analysis and
guidance. When the MAG is made operational, the experimental MAF site
will be discontinued.
The experimental MAG was made available in June, and we are seeking
public comment through December 31, 2010. Comments on the MAG may be
provided via a survey at:

For technical questions/comments about the MAG, you can send an email to
