Shown here are twin supercomputers Dogwood and Cactus (pictured here) are the newest additions to NOAA's weather and climate operational supercomputing system. Located in Manassas, Virginia, and Phoenix, Arizona, respectively, each supercomputer operates at a speed of 12.1 petaflops — three times faster than NOAA's former system.

Shown here are twin supercomputers Dogwood and Cactus (pictured here) are the newest additions to NOAA's weather and climate operational supercomputing system. Located in Manassas, Virginia, and Phoenix, Arizona, respectively, each supercomputer operates at a speed of 12.1 petaflops — three times faster than NOAA's former system.
The upgrade adds 2.8 petaflops of speed at both data centers combined, increasing NOAA’s total operational  computing speed to 8.4 petaflops.
