Simulation of the derecho event in Poland of 11th August 2017 using the WRF model and ECMWF data as initial conditions

Description

This series contains datasets related to the forecasting of a severe weather event, a derecho, in Poland on 11 August 2017. The simulations were conducted using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model version 4.2.1 with initial and boundary conditions from European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). Simulation was performed for two starting hours: at 00:00 and 12:00 UTC. The datasets contain about 280 meteorological parameters stored as 2D or 3D fields in 3 domains with high-spatial (7.5 km, 2.5 km and 0.5 km domains) and temporal (1 hour, 10 minutes, 10 minutes) resolutions. The three-dimensional fields are calculated up to 50 hPa at 50 levels. All data are stored in easily accessible NetCDF files.
