[AWIPS #KEZ-434248]: /awips2/data_store/manual directory

Hey Pete,

> 1. We pull in a grib file from the NOAA Server (home grown script using wget)
> 2. We place the grib file in /awips2/data_store/ingest/
> 3. The rest is done by EDEX and what we notice is the following
> a. EDEX continually polls /awips2/data_store/ingest/ for a grib file
> b. After detecting a grib file in /awips2/data_store/ingest/ it removes the 
> file from /awips2/data_store/ingest/ and processes it. The result is
> - HDF5 files in /awips2/edex/data/hdf5/grid
> - copy of the grib file is placed in /awips2/data_store/manual/grib

Sorry for the confusion, the /awips2/data_store/ingest directory is our manual 
endpoint
(http://unidata.github.io/awips2/edex/new-grid/#download-test-data).

So instead of placing the files in that location, use the python script to 
insert
them into the EDEX queue.
Does that make sense?
