Daryl,
Daryl,
I'm surprised that you are just seeing that now. Over the past several
month, I've seen this behavior several times. Because of all the
problems at NCEP, I've temporarily disabled the dcgrib items in
pqact.conf until the data problems get resolved. Fortunately, we use WXP
more than GEMPAK, which uses the raw grib files as they come in. I'm not
sure what dcgrib does to the data other than figure out where things go
in the gawdawful GEMPAK file tree structure, but we certainly have
experienced several runaway dcgrib processes over the past month or two.
Jim
