Earlier this month we announced the release of 600+ TB of Met Office forecasts + 2-year archive on the Planetary Computer. Today we've added a new tutorial on how to query and analyze these datasets using the Planetary Computer STAC API using xarray + obstore! Check out the tutorial here: https://lnkd.in/e7TKQGa7 You can use this tutorial to start performing different types of analyses across 50+ forecast variables including: 🌍 Time‑and‑space sub-setting (grab just the forecast region + forecast window you care about) ⛈️ Event‑focused deep dives (storms, heatwaves, heavy precipitation windows) ✅ Model evaluation workflows (compare forecast runs across horizons / reference times) #MicrosoftPlanetaryComputer #Weather #MetOffice
