Technical details of the new cycle

Note

Please note: 3 hourly analysis fields now available

With the implementation of the IFS Cycle 50r1 analysis fields will be available every 3 hours, at times 0 UTC, 3 UTC ... 18 UTC and 21 UTC.
(Previously, analysis fields were available only every 6 hours, at times 0 UTC, 6 UTC, 12 UTC and 18 UTC.) 

Note

Please note: Hourly forecast fields now available

With the implementation of the IFS Cycle 50r1 model level and presure level forecast fields will be available every hourly step at 0, 1, 2 ... 119 and 120.
(Previously, only surface level forecast fields were available every hourly step).
