>Hi there, >Is there any way to view worldwide forecast data instead of just the CONUS? >Thanks. Hi, Recently with the upgrade of GFS Version 16 we noticed an increase in products which caused a lot of products to be delayed in AWIPS. We've been testing out some different resolutions and have come to the conclusion that we can process the 1 degree GFS worldwide (previously we had been displaying the .25 degree). We just turned it on this morning so there are some 12Z model runs, but starting with the 18Z model run you should have the full dataset. The Models menus should now read "GFS 1.00 Global" - if you don't see it, close CAVE, remove the caveData directory, re-open CAVE and connect to edex-cloud.unidata.ucar.edu Thanks, Tiffany Meyer AWIPS Lead Software Engineer UCAR-Unidata If you're interested, please feel free to fill out a survey about the support you receive: https://forms.gle/tKG5SY9YJw4vBRVXA Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: BNZ-826400 Department: Support AWIPS Priority: Normal Status: Open =================== NOTE: All email exchanges with Unidata User Support are recorded in the Unidata inquiry tracking system and then made publicly available through the web.
