Ensemble Routing
Should I be expecting basic .25 GFS route to match GFS Ensemble Control route ?
or is GFS Control its own permutation of basic GFS.
My GFS route takes me in a big arc, 350nm off rhumb, Annapolis to St. Lucia Leaving Nov. 30 8AM
Motoring when below 5 kts sailing speed.
19 of the ensemble routes basically follow rhumb,
2 routes split the difference.

Re: Ensemble Routing
You will find the ensemble control is slightly different from the basic GFS. It will also be lower resolution in most cases.

If you haven't already; also download the gribs for the Gulf Steam and area eddies.
Weather tab/Saildocs/RTOFS-Global you may find some variations.
Good luck,
Ernie

Re: Ensemble Routing
For the GFS Ensemble, is there a way to view the standard deviation data for an imported grib? I tried to look at it at a metogram and in the wind model drop down and could not see it. In different viewer, I can see the std dev data in the same file. Thanks.
