Hurricane data received from Fuqing Zhang. The tarball received contains 50 randomly perturbed ensemble members for an operational hurricane simulation in the Gulf of Mexico. Each NetCDF file contained in this tarball contains only the surface layer of variables U, V, SLP, T, and QVAPOR. Nine of the ensemble members given in the tarball are visualized in the gallary below along with some basic statistical analysis of the ensemble.

The centers of each hurricane calculated as the location of minimum surface pressure displayed as an asterisk. The color of the asterisks show the value of the minimum pressure. The black oval shows the range of 1 standard deviation from the mean position.
