octets      1 2 3    4   56
 HRS     ^[YZ].(.)([J-Y]).. KWB. ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9]).*/m(NGM|RUC)
        FILE
        data/pub/raw/hrs/model/\5/\1/\2/(\3:yyyy)(\3:mm)\3\4_\5.wmo

product:

YEQJXX KWBE 2412

data/pub/raw/hrs/model/RUC/Q/J/200506272412_RUC.wmo


the ^ means start of product, so Octet 4 / A2 would be J in the above
