Universal coordinated time. 5 hours ahead of central daylight time at this moment. It is how the model runs are initiated and distinguished in this thread. It is useful to know when you see a model image as they'll usually show when the run was initiated and what day/time the associated image is supposed to depict.

Z is for Zulu or time measured at Greenwich England also known as GMT. For central time zone the difference is 5 hours behind the z time.
