[python #LCL-405251]: Keep getting Server Error (403: Request Too Large: Too large, max size = 629145600)

Greetings!

Apologies for the delayed response. Can you send the full code for the query 
you're using to download? If I try to follow what I think you're doing:

cat = 
TDSCatalog('http://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog/grib/NCEP/GFS/Global_0p25deg/catalog.xml')

best = cat.datasets['Best GFS Quarter Degree Forecast Time Series']
ncss = best.subset()
query = 
ncss.query().variables('Geopotential_height_isobaric').vertical_level('25000')

ncss.get_data(query)

I don't get the message about the query being too large.

Cheers,

Ryan
