WRF forecast wind map and its comparison with buoy/station data

In case you didn't see it yet, the WRF hourly wind map (left panel) is displayed at the JPL OurOcean/PWS portal (http://ourocean.jpl.nasa.gov/PWS, click WRF Wind). When clicking the weather buoy/station, users can display the comparison between the observed and WRF simulated wind speed and direction (right panel). By evaluating the performance during the past two days, one can estimate the uncertainty in the 2-day forecast.
