ecCharts-2 now in production

ecCharts-2 is now in production. ecCharts URL (https://www.ecmwf.int/en/forecasts/eccharts) and Dashboard URL ( https://www.ecmwf.int/en/forecasts/dashboard) point to the new system.

The previous ecCharts service will be available until the beginning of June 2020 at the URL  https://www.ecmwf.int/en/forecasts/eccharts-1 . 

Please update any ecCharts-2 bookmarks before the middle of June 2020, as redirection of ecCharts-2 to ecCharts will not be active after that.

Discontinuation of the HRES-SAW configuration of the Wave model

Dear Colleagues,

Please note that the HRES Stand Alone Wave model (HRES-SAW : [https://www.ecmwf.int/en/forecasts/datasets/set-ii]) will be discontinued  on 7 January 2020 after the  00 UTC run, as previously announced.

From this date onwards, you will need to acquire the equivalent products from the fully-coupled HRES WAve Model (HRES-WAM) product set. You can find additional information on how to change dissemination or your MARS retrievals at the following link:
