Description
The NARR dataset is an extension of the NCEP Global Reanalysis which is run over the North American Region. The NARR model uses the very high
resolution NCEP Eta Model (32km/45 layer) together with the Regional Data Assimilation System (RDAS) which, significantly, assimilates precipitation
along with other variables. Data is output 4-8 times daily. Daily and Monthly values are available. The datasets starts in 1979.
