Hi Luis, > thanks for the note. No worries. Like I said, I was waiting for you to resurrect an IDD node at CICESE. > Since I did not know that you would be > asisting us, I had to write a couple of lines on my goals > at CICESE. I am glad that you did. It helps others better understand your organization. > I barely remember that we used aeolus.ucsd.edu and that > this is a machine at Scripps. Not sure if Larry Riddle > is still there. I met him there a couple of years ago. Larry retired several months ago. He gave us permission to make changes on his machine so we can keep the software up to date, and add allows for downstream sites as we see fit. > No problem if the NOGAPS products are not allowed to us. > I know that is a good large-scale model developed at > the U.S. Navy.

I am continually hopeful that somehow other institutions in Mexico will realize the value of getting real-time weather data through the IDD ** free of charge **, and of the incredibly useful applications that we distribute and support also ** free of charge ** :-) > Thanks, again, LMF.
