Would someone be kind enough to explain the times used when running models for the tropics. I thought it was like military time but its not. Example being the 12Z, 16Z and so on. This would make reading the maps and posts alot easier. I want to learn and already have learned alot just by reading, and a little common sense. But this one has me a little stumped. Thanks. :22:

Moved your question here, O Town, because it's about weather not the forums. You're more likely to get knowledgable replies here.

Models reference UTC (Zulu) time. For your location subtract 4 hours to get Eastern daylight time.

Thanks for taking the time to answer. I know there is alot going on, and probably should have picked a different time to ask. :oops:

Thanks again.
