Hi there,

Thank you for using our reporting form, we received your submission:

We're glad you saw our posts on social media.  You can also join our mailing 
list (awips2-users) 
where we notify our users about new updates, EDEX outages, and bi-weekly blogs, 
which tends to be a
bit more comprehensive (and sooner) than our social media posts.  If you're 
interested you can sign
up here: https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/support/index.html#mailinglists

This is a really strange issue you're seeing that we haven't encountered 
before.  Can you tell me a
bit about your computer?  What version of MacOS are you running? Can you send 
me a screenshot 
(apple+shift+4) of the "About This Mac" Window, from the Apple menu in the top 
right?
Have you ever successfully loaded model data with a different version of CAVE 
on this machine?
Can you please send me the entire error message outputs (maybe easier in a 
separate .txt file), from
the Alert View tab?

Hopefully we can get to the bottom of this!  Thank you!
