In Response To: Re: Tmax OBS vs MODEL comparison (Stan Benjamin)

Is the 20km TOPOMINI height data available? I have not found it but
would be very interested in looking at it. However, for this case of
a high-elevation observation point its MSL elevation is _above_ that
of the model terrain elevation, so should be closer to the latter than
to the TOPOMINI elevation. The use of TOPOMINI may give heights (and
so 2m temperatures) closer to those at METAR locations since METARs
are typically at lower elevations than the model terrain elevation,
but not for actual elevations higher than the model terrain which is
why I was interested in making the comparision for this case.
