WRF 250m Severe Weather Overlays 18 high resolution severe weather simulations, ready to plot. 250 meter WRF model output covering tornadoes, wildfires, hurricanes, blizzards, heat waves, and flooding events across the US. Each event includes surface weather fields at 1 minute temporal resolution on an 800x800 grid — just load with numpy and start making maps. What's in the box Each event folder contains: coords.npz — latitude/longitude arrays ( xlat , xlong , both 800x800 float32) t 0000.npz through t NNNN.npz — one file per timestep, each containing 16 weather fields metadata.json — event info, timestamps, field descriptions Quick start Make an animation Fields Every .npz timestep file contains these 16 fields, all float32 at 800x800: Field Description Units Notes t2m 2 meter temperature degC u10 10 meter U wind component m/s v10 10 meter V wind component m/s wind speed 10m 10 meter wind speed m/s Derived: sqrt(u10^2 + v10^2) wind direction 10m 10 meter wind direction degrees Meteorological convention (wind FROM) surface pressure Surface pressure hPa pblh Planetary boundary layer height m hfx Surface sensible heat flux W/m2 lh Surface latent heat flux W/m2 rain rate Precipitation…
