Hi All-

Recently, the National Weather Service changed their designation
of the name of the model that covers North America.  While for
now, it is still the Eta model, it is designated as the NAM
(North American Model).  Because of this, we have changed the
real-time catalog of model grids at:

http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/idv/rt-models.1.0.xml

so that the Eta model that used to be listed as:

NCEP Eta 80km CONUS model data (real and near time)

is now:

NCEP NAM 80km CONUS model data (real and near time)

For now, the file extension on the files is eta211.nc, but
that may change in the future.

If you have bundles that access the latest grid data
from this dataset, they should still work as before.  If
not, please let us know.
