Batch download of archive files for offline use

Post by hmpickard »

Hello,

I have downloaded the HYSPLIT model for offline use on a PC and I am wondering if there is any way to download the archive meteorological files as a batch rather than each week individually? I am looking to run models from 1977-2015 and from what I understand, I would need to use the reanalysis data, which I would need to download separately per week for that time frame. This seems very time consuming and I am wondering if there is a more simple way to download these files that I may have missed when reading the manuals.

Sincerely,
Heidi

The Reanalysis files are monthly so that is not as many files to download as the GDAS weekly files. These are at ftp://arlftp.arlhq.noaa.gov/archives/reanalysis/. As you say though from 1977-2015 there are a lot of files.
