NAM and GFS Model Trend Graphics
These graphics supplement the Model Diagnostic Discussion by comparing 500-mb geopotential height and sea level pressure every 6-h from F00-F84 from the most recent 00Z or 12Z NAM and GFS model runs to output from the model initialized 12 hours and 24 hours earlier. Difference fields between the current and older runs can also be displayed.

NCEP Synergy Meeting Highlights
Meetings between EMC, NCO, the NCEP Operational Centers, MDL, and NWS Regions were held routinely
to discuss short-term model implementation plans in concert with super computer and
communication system development. These meetings were discontinued after May, 2019 as the
information was readily available through other resources.
