Hi Pete, It is a little confusing. I looked at the processed hdf5 obs files on our EDEX (/awips2/edex/data/hdf5/obs) and mapped them to each rule. -35 files (one will probably get purged next) that are timestamped at 1 hour intervals (consistent with rule #1) -15 files that are timestamped at 3 hour intervals (consistent with rule #2) -11 files that are timestamped at 6 hour intervals (consistent with rule #3) -10 files that are timestamped at 24 hour intervals (1 day) at 12Z (consistent with rule #4) Please see the attached and let us know if this helps clarify.
