If you need an atmospheric model for meteorite dark flight purposes, we can in principle calculate one anywhere on Earth using WRF modelling.

Steps:

Notes:

Output data products only cover up to ~31 km altitudes.
Input data for running the model is not always immediately available (might take a day or two).
We cannot guarantee we can provide the service in a timely fashion.
We are mostly interested in collaborating on cases that are useful to research, hence may decline a request in some instances.
If you use data products from this service in a publication, we kindly ask that you add this acknowledgement, and cite our dark flight paper as source for the method.

Output data products:

native wrfout NetCDF files (can be read/exported using this code as example).
vertical profiles extracted at the time and coordinates provided. CSV file, all SI units:

Column Name	Format	Unit	Comment
height		metre	Height (Above Sea Level)
temperature		Kelvin
pressure		Pascal
relative_humidity	%		atmospheric relative Humidity (0-100%)
wind_horizontal		metre/second	Magnitude of the wind vector in the horizontal plane
wind_direction	decimal	degrees	East of North direction the wind is coming from
wind_east		metre/second	Easterly component of the wind
wind_north		metre/second	Northerly component of the wind
wind_up		metre/second	Upwards component of the wind
density		kg/metre^3	Density of the atmosphere
