Description
GFS-view is a free, open-source program that allows you to download and access the instant weather forecast data from NCEP (National Centers for Environmental Prediction).
GFS-view enables you to download multiple data at once by a variable time step and combinations of grib code-level-heights tags, by several days, numerous numerical models run times, and many forecast times. You can filter data on the server to save bandwidth and disk space, etc. The program is currently available as an MSI installer.
Important: Please make sure to read the "Quick start guide" as you will need to provide an email address in the "Sign In" dialog.
Note: The software requires Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package 2015, so if you don't have it installed, you will need to download and install it.
