Hi Gilbert, re: my comment regarding the possible need to update GEMPAK tables > Huh? I have a null pqact on noaaport.admin.niu.edu, so how can this be a > GEMPAK error? Yo no comprende. Chiz used GEMPAK code in the NOAAPort package to crack the GRIB/GRIB2 messages being received in the broadcast. The information gathered is used to create the product ID for each GRIB message as it is inserted into the LDM queue for distribution in the IDD. If the GEMPAK tables included in the noaaport-1.3.0.tar.gz distribution do not contain entries needed for the Wave Watch III fields, then the tables need to be updated. I have to determine if this is the reason that we are not seeing the WW3 grids even though their broadcast was supposed to start on April 29.
