  Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------

Hi,

When I took the training in July 2009, I seem to remember that NCL 
scripts for plotting results of pointstat were mentionned.

Would you be so kind as to point me to the correct url for I am not 
finding them...?

thanks

Remi

Remi,

I'm afraid that there we don't have any NCL scripts for plotting
pointstat
results.  We are developing a tool called METViewer that will plot
statistics,
but that may not be available for a few more months.  In the
meanwhile, the
point_stat output is simple tabular ASCII text that you can read and
plot with
any math tool.  There are some R scripts on the MET website that you
may find
useful at:

http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/downloads/analysis_scripts.php

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,

Paul

Dear Paul,

It's not so bad, I cannot get my observations to pair up with my NWP
data!

I've attached the pointstat_remi.sh file I'm running, as well as its
data.
Could you please check what i might be doing wrong?

I just get 0 pairs no matter what I do.

Best regards,

Remi

Hi again,

Actually I realise one of my mistakes was to encode in Grib code 140
which is categorical rain. I've switched to 61 now, as in the model,
for
they both are 24h accumulation of rain.

I'm doing the following:
fcst_field[] = [ "APCP/A24" ];
obs_field[]  = ["APCP/A24"];

which is not working either.

When specifying a grib code, is this the correct syntax? I cannot see
any example anywhere...
//fcst_field[] = [ "APCP/R061" ];
//obs_field[]  = ["APCP/R061"];

Thanks

ps: attached is my new .nc file (with GC 61).

Remi,

The reason that you are not getting any matched pairs is that you are
trying to
compare 24hr accumulated precipitation in the model file
(PARPTR.GLOB1500.20100606.Run00.grib) against 6hr accumulated
precipitation in
the observation file (SYNOP.20100607000000.24H.rdb.nc).

Also, we don't recommend using the record number in the field unless
there is no
other easy alternative.  You should be able to set the level to an
accumulation
interval.  If you have any questions, please let us know.

Thanks,

Paul
