Schedule of Products
Local forecasts are generally in the system between 0800 and 0900 daily. The Satellite Rain Analysis is issued approximately 615am all year, but is updated as needed during storms at about 5pm. The SSM/I Microwave Moisture Analyses are normally updated with each DMSP satellite pass over the area from the western U.S. to about 140W. Quantitative Precipitation Forecasts are now generated for the entire California coast and valley areas, and in the Central Valley from Stockton south. They are issued on a twice daily basis...approximaely 0445 and 1300 throughout the year.
The MtnRT forecasts are updated every 6 hours for all of California, and are on the server at 0100, 0700, 1300, and 1700 Pacific Time.
The 30 day outlook text is issued weekly around noon on Mondays, or
Tuesday if Monday is a holiday. The 90 day outlook maps of temperature and
precipitation are generally issued around the first of each month.
