Hello.
First off, this is my first post to gembud. I?ve been using the
Gempak/NAWIPS suite since May of 2004. I am completely lost on this one.
I am trying to use gdvint to convert pressure coordinates to theta
coordinates for NAM/Eta grid 212. I developed a small script that will run
gdvint for each forecast hour?F00 to F84. When it runs, I get ?Excessive
number of parameters??then a list of skipped parameters. It always gets
pres, psym, avor, omeg & spfh. The problem is that urel and/or vrel get
skipped at various time steps.
I saw a previous posting that had this problem?but that dealt with Gempak
being built from source. They were told to edit a file in the source folder
and then remake it. I install the binary distribution for the Linux
platform. I am currently running FC4.
Here?s an example output. This specific one skips the vrel parameter.
