Near-surface level collection Met Office UKV 2km deterministic forecast
This collection offers 35 parameters at near-surface level from the Met Office UKV 2km deterministic forecast. This is a high-resolution gridded weather forecast for the UK, with a resolution of 0.018 degrees, projected on to a 2km horizontal grid. The data is available as NetCDF files. It's offered on a free, unsupported basis, so we don't recommend using it for any critical business purposes. ## Coverage area The forecast covers the UK and Ireland, with the following latitude and longitude coo
