Teresa, The resolution depends on where the file are obtained from, conduit feed give the 1x1 resolution and the NOAAPORT is the 1.25x1.25 resolution. I included the avn-1x1.cdl file that I created. The patterns are much different, something like: *fh.0000_tl.press_gr* You can use the notifyme command to find the names of the products, ie %notifyme -vl - -f CONDUIT http://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/modelinfo/ AVN SL.us008001/ST.opnl/MT.avn_CY.hh/RD.yyyymmdd/PT.grid_DF.grl fh.0000_t1.press_gr.onedeg (where fh = 0000 - 0180) fh.0192_t1.press_gr.2p5deg (where fh = 0192 - 0384) 61 one degree files per cycle -- 61*700kb=42.7Mb 17 2.5 degree files per cycle -- 17*200kb=3.4Mb Total -- 46.1 Mb increase per cycle 4 cycles per day -- 184.4 Mb Robb... > > Thanks much, > > Teresa Van Hove > > Robb Kambic wrote: > > > > Maybe something else is going wrong.
