Donna,

I have updated the nws and decoders entries on line (and continuing
to do so for the next 5.6.h release shortly). I placed an updated tar file in
the gbuddy ftp account on ftp.unidata.ucar.edu (password still XXXXXX)
in the nawips-5.6/patches/dcstorm.tar.Z file. Unpack from the $NAWIPS directory
with zcat dcstorm.tar.Z | tar xvf -
then build and install with:

cd $NAWIPS/unidata/ldmbridge/dcstorm
make clean
make all
make install
make clean


The pqact pattern now looks like:

# SPC storm reports
# NWUS20 (daily), NWUS22 (Hourly)
#DDPLUS ^WWUS60 KMKC ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9])
DDPLUS  ^NWUS2[02] KWNS ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9])
        PIPE    -close  decoders/dcstorm -m 2000
        -d data/gempak/logs/dcstorm.log
        -e GEMTBL=/home/gempak/NAWIPS/gempak/tables
        data/gempak/storm/sels/YYYYMMDD_sels.gem
