[Support #NAB-494698]: Mcidas--Grids not available?

Hi again Bill,

Quick update:

I have reverted the GRID decoder on adde.ucar.edu to a prior release.
Model data is once again being decoded into McIDAS GRID format.

Example:

DATALOC ADD RTGRIDS ADDE.UCAR.EDU
GRDLIST RTGRIDS/UKMT
Dataset position 88     Directory Title= ALL  12Z UKMT48 HR< VT<=72 HR
PAR  LEVEL      DAY          TIME     SRC  FHR  FDAY         FTIME    GRID  PRO
---- ---------- ------------ -------- ---- ---- ------------ -------- ----- ----
T    SFC        25 SEP 07268 12:00:00 UKMT   60 28 SEP 07271 00:00:00     1 MERC
Number of grids listed = 1
GRDLIST - done

GRDLIST RTGRIDS/GFS NUM=5
Dataset position 148    Directory Title= ALL  12Z GFS 96 HR< VT<=120HR
PAR  LEVEL      DAY          TIME     SRC  FHR  FDAY         FTIME    GRID  PRO
---- ---------- ------------ -------- ---- ---- ------------ -------- ----- ----
Z      625 MB   25 SEP 07268 12:00:00  GFS  150 01 OCT 07274 18:00:00     1 LAMB
Z      550 MB   25 SEP 07268 12:00:00  GFS  150 01 OCT 07274 18:00:00     2 LAMB
Z      500 MB   25 SEP 07268 12:00:00  GFS  150 01 OCT 07274 18:00:00     3 LAMB
Z      525 MB   25 SEP 07268 12:00:00  GFS  150 01 OCT 07274 18:00:00     4 LAMB
Z      150 MB   25 SEP 07268 12:00:00  GFS  150 01 OCT 07274 18:00:00     5 LAMB
Number of grids listed = 5
GRDLIST - done

This temporary change gives me the breathing room to be able to investigate
why the v2007 version of the decoder is not working correctly.

So, as model data are received the RTGRIDS datasets will once again
be populated, and you should be able to turn your displays of model
data back on.

In spite of this change, I would still appreciate getting a better understanding
of what model data you are likely to want to process so I can best advise you
on how to transition to the user of the new RTGRIBS dataset.

Cheers,

Tom
