Weather Elements on Grid based on the High Resolution Deterministic Prediction System
Weather Elements on Grid (WEonG) based on the High Resolution Deterministic Prediction System (HRDPS) is a post-processing system designed to compute the weather elements required by different forecast programs (public, marine, aviation, air quality, etc.). This system amalgamates numerical and post-processed data using various diagnostic approaches. Hourly concepts are produced from different algorithms using outputs from the pan-Canadian High Resolution Deterministic Prediction System (HRDPS-NAT).
Weather Elements on Grid based on the Global Deterministic Prediction System [experimental]
For nearly three decades, the SCRIBE system has been used to assist meteorologists in preparing weather reports. The philosophy behind SCRIBE is that a set of weather element matrices are generated for selected stations or sample points and then transmitted to regional weather centers. The matrices are then decoded by SCRIBE and can be modified via the graphical interface by the users. The resulting data is then provided to a text generator, which produces bilingual public forecasts in plain language.The various rules related to the Scribe matrices hinder scientific innovation, do not exploit the richness of the Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP), reduce the understanding of weather forecasts, and and may require frequent interventions from forecasters.As part of a larger modernization plan for the Meteorological Service of Canada (MSC), in which the role of the forecaster is evolving, the goal is to replace the Scribe matrices, available on the MSC Datamart, and their limited number of points across Canada with Weather Elements on the Grid ("WEonG").Weather Elements on Grid (WEonG) based on the Global Deterministic Prediction System (GDPS) is a post-processing system designed to compute the weather elements required by different forecast programs (public, marine, aviation, air quality, etc.). This system amalgamates numerical and post-processed data using various diagnostic approaches. Hourly concepts are produced from different algorithms using outputs from the Global Deterministic Prediction System (GDPS).
Forecasted Basin-Average Accumulated Precipitation (RDPS - 84 hrs)
This polygon layer displays 84-hour accumulated precipitation forecasts from the Regional Deterministic Prediction System (RDPS), aggregated at the sub-basin level. This layer helps hydrologists, water resource managers, and emergency responders identify watersheds with potentially higher rainfall or snowfall, facilitating short-term flood risk analysis and operational planning.Model & Domain: The RDPS is Environment and Climate Change Canada’s regional numerical weather prediction model, running at ~10 km resolution to capture mesoscale weather patterns over Canada and adjacent regions. Forecast Integration: It produces short-range forecasts (up to 84 hours), updated 4 times daily with boundary conditions from the global GEM model (GDPS). Sub-Basin Aggregation: This layer averages forecasted precipitation across each sub-basin polygon, providing a convenient snapshot of expected accumulations for hydrological modeling and water management. Key Applications:Flood Forecasting – Identifying basins at risk of heavy runoff. Resource Allocation – Positioning crews and equipment in vulnerable watersheds. Planning – Adapting reservoir release schedules, urban drainage controls, and agricultural activities

RDPS Forecasted Accumulated Precipitation - 84 hrs
This polygon layer reflects short-range (up to 84 hours) accumulated precipitation forecasts from the Regional Deterministic Prediction System (RDPS), a high-resolution (~10 km) weather model developed by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC). It supports flood forecasting, hydrological modeling, and operational planning by providing refined, near-real-time precipitation guidance for Canada and surrounding areas.Short-Range Forecasts: RDPS runs multiple times per day, offering precipitation outlooks for days 0–3.5 with updates every six hours. High Resolution: At ~10 km, RDPS captures critical mesoscale phenomena like localized downpours, lake-effect snow, and terrain-driven precipitation. Hydrological Utility: Especially valuable for sub-basin-level flood risk assessment and water resource management in near-term scenarios. Technical Basis: The RDPS is a limited-area configuration of the GEM model, using initial/boundary conditions from ECCC’s Global Deterministic Prediction System (GDPS).
Dynamic Precipitation Maps - Experience Builder - A Product of The Hydrologic Forecast Centre
This is the web experience created using ArcGIS Web Experience Builder to portray the dynamic precipitation maps derived using various weather model data published by the Environment Canada, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. It contains various precipitation layers for each of the models depicting various forecast periods / observation periods. The underlying data is updated regularly as the data gets published by ECCC/NOAA/ECMWF as per the publishing frequency.Following are the forecast weather models depicted in this Web Experience : HRDPS Model (High Resolution Deterministic Prediction System - Continental) for 24 and 48 hours of forecast periods. Regional Ensemble Prediction System (REPS) for 72 hours of forecast period hour. Regional Deterministic Prediction System (RDPS) for 84 hours of forecast period hour. Global Deterministic Prediction System (GDPS) for 168 and 240 hours of forecast periods. Global Forecast System (GFS) for 168 hours of forecast period. Global Ensemble Prediction System (GEPS) for 168 and 384 hours of forecast period. European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts for 168 hours of forecast periodAnd following are the observed weather models depicted in this Web Experience :High Resolution Deterministic Precipitation Analysis (HRDPA) with observation periods of the past 1 day, 3 days and 7 days.Special Thanks to Environment and Climate Change Canada, NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Prediction, European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts
Fire Weather Sector
## Get data on boundaries of local climatic areas used for forest fire weather forecasting. This dataset shows the boundaries of administrative areas used for forest fire weather forecasting. North of the French River, boundaries correspond closely with Environment Canada’s areas for public weather forecasting. South of the French River, 25 Environment Canada areas are combined into six larger areas for provincial forecasting.
Global Deterministic Prediction System
The Global Deterministic Prediction System (GDPS) is a coupled atmosphere (GEM), ocean and sea ice (NEMO-CICE) deterministic numerical weather prediction model. Forecasts are carried out twice a day for 10 days lead time. The geographical coverage is global at 15 km horizontal resolution. Data is available on some thirty vertical levels and interpolated on a global latitude-longitude uniform grid with 0.15 degree horizontal resolution. Variables availability in number and time frequency is a function of forecast lead time.
