Art,

That would mean that the fields have the ensemble bits identifying the
grids from the control c001 run.

It appears that the onedeg gfs fields were only posted through 84 hours
for the 12Z rather than through 180 as is normal.

The patterns I am using are:


CONDUIT ST.opnl/MT.gfs
       PIPE    decoders/dcgrib2 -d
data/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_CONDUITgfs.log
       -e GEMTBL=/home/gempak/NAWIPS/gempak/tables

and

CONDUIT MT.ensg
       PIPE    decoders/dcgrib2 -d
data/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_CONDUITens.log
       -e GEMTBL=/home/gempak/NAWIPS/gempak/tables
       data/gempak/model/ens/YYYYMMDDHHfFFF_ens@@@.gem

Note that I file to hourly ensemble files, while using the gribkey.tbl
file for the MT.gfs file to handle the gfs.

Hmmm... looks like I may have a more complicated plumbing issue on my hands than I thought. I'm currently just feeding everything from CONDUIT into the dcgrib2 decoder and letting it do the filing work... will that not work anymore? Is there anything that can be done in gribkey.tbl to avoid the confusion?

Hi...

Starting with this morning's (Aug 05, 2005) 12Z GFS on the 003 grid, it
appears that all field names have a "C001" attached to the name (e.g. HGHT
becomes HGHTC001, etc...) for all hours after the 84 hour forecast.  Is
anyone else seeing this?  Is it a bug, or a new "feature"?  It's making it
difficult to get to the fields by their former names.
