Hello all, I'm trying to convert model grib files into GFE/IFPS compatible
file formats using the Unidata Converter suite. So far I'm having no luck and
am seeking input from anyone who may be able to help. Here's what I've done so far... 1. I'm using a GFS grib file for input. 2. Create a .cdl file: $ gribtocdl -v -g awips.tbl 2007021212_gfs.grib
> gfs_2007021212.cdl * I'm using a awips.tbl file that I found while browsing
the unidata archives 3. Create the nc file: $ gribtonc -l - -g awips.tbl gfs_2007021212.cdl
awips.nc < 2007021212_gfs.grib My output here is interesting and may be
problematic. Here is a sample: ------------- Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD99 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Nx: 129 != 65 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD99 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Ny: 85 != 65 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD99 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch La1: 7.838 != -20.826 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD99 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Lo1: -141.028 != -150 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD99 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Dx: 95250 != 381000 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD99 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Dy: 95250 != 381000 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD30 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Nx: 129 != 65 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD30 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Ny: 85 != 65 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD30 KWBC 121200, awips.nc
nav. mismatch La1: 7.838 != -20.826 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD30 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Lo1: -141.028 != -150 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD30 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Dx: 95250 != 381000 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YHHD30 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Dy: 95250 != 381000 Feb 12 21:37:59 gribtonc[13996]: YUHD85 KWBC 121200,
awips.nc nav. mismatch Nx: 129 != 65 ------------- 4. Even though I'm getting hundreds (thousands) of mismatch
statements I do get a large .nc file. From there I'm tried to put it into my designated input
directory in the GFE/IFPS but do not see it available when I run the program. Obviously I'm doing something wrong. Can anyone out there help me? Thanks in advance for any
comments/suggestions, etc, I really appreciate it! -Charles ------------------- Charles Ross Meteorologist Bonneville Power Administration
