Don, Thanks, I will eventually add Jim's bundles. At this point, I am at a "testing the tests" phase. (They are portable at this point. Provided you have access to Docker, it is one command to run them.) As I understand this issue, the Convective_precipitation_surface_1_Hour_Accumulation field replaces the field referred to below. All precip accumulations can be derived from that field. Best, Unidata IDV Support > Thanks Julien. Be sure to get Jim Steenburgh's bundles as well if you > don't already have them.
