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

I am running point stat on WRF winds but I am not getting any stats.  My
code to run this is:

 

/sphome/qcteam/METv2.0/bin/point_stat
/gds/data/global/WXQC/data/wrf/t2/qc_100615_us057g1011t02b060000600
/h/data/global/WXQC/data/obs_pr

ep/2010061512 /sphome/qcteam/METv2.0/data/config/point_stat_config_WRF
-outdir /h/data/global/WXQC/data/met/data -v 2

 

 

Attached is the config file along with the ob file and model file.

 

 

The following  is the output I get.  Why the 0 pairs?  Thanks Bob Craig

Robert,

Your observation file has a message type of PROFLR, but your config
file is
specifying a message type of ADPSFC.  This is one potential problem.
Another
problem is that the model output appears to be valid at 20100615_12
and the
observations are valid 24 hours later.  You could change your config
file to
open the valid time window to a larger value using beg_ds and end_ds.
Please
let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,

Paul

Subject: RE: [rt.rap.ucar.edu #38629] Point Stat Question
From: Craig, Robert J Civ USAF AFWA 16 WS/WXN
Time: Tue Jun 22 07:56:31 2010

Thanks for looking into this.  I inadvertently left off my config file
name from the command string, hence it defaulted to profiler data. My
config file has "ANYSFC" which the documentation says includes ADPUPA
(RAOB data).

For the observations, I am pulling the prepbufr files
from ftp.ncep.noaa.gov in the
/pub/data/nccf/com/gfs/prod/gdas.20100615 for the 15 Jun files for the
case below.  An example of the filenames I am pulling are
gdas2.t12z.prepbufr.nr.   I rename these files to 20100615_12 in this
case.  Since this file came out of the 20100615 directory I would
expect it to be valid for 20100615 at 12Z.  Is there a way I can dump
the header of the prepbufr file to see the date that's in the file?
Bob

Bob,

We looked more closely at the observation data that you included in
your
original email, and we noticed that they don't appear to be surface
observations.  When verifying 2m temp or 10m winds in point_stat, only
observations of type ADPSFC or SFCSHP can be used (or ONLYSF for
either).

Please change your point_stat config fcst_field setting to the
following value:

fcst_field[] = [ "33/Z10", "34/Z10"];

also, please change the message type:

message_type[] = [ "ADPSFC" ];

Please let us know if you have any more questions.

Thanks,

Paul

Time: Tue Jun 22 15:16:40 2010

I am getting the same 0 pair error with the attached ob file.  I built
this
file using the attached config file.  Is there surface observations in
my
file?  Is the valid time of the file correct?  I am using the -dump
option but
I am not getting any file showing up in the directory I set for this.

Subject: Re: [rt.rap.ucar.edu #38629] Point Stat Question
From: Paul Oldenburg
Time: Thu Jun 24 10:21:57 2010

Bob,

I sent that email to John through the met_help ticketing system.  It
was not
intended for you, sorry.

We tested the PB2NCConfig file that you sent, and we found that it did
not
process the message types that are needed by point_stat.  The reason
was that
the quality_mark_thresh setting was set to 1 instead of 2, and the
message types
ADPSFC and ADPUPA were not processed as a result.  Please try the
following
setting in your PB2NCConfig file:

quality_mark_thresh = 2;

Also, it is important to make sure that you are running the latest MET
patches.
 If you have not done so, please download and deploy the patches from
the MET
website at:

http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/known_issues/METv2.0/index.php

Thanks,

Paul

I will reset the quality threshold.

I download the updates to MET and placed in the top level MET dir.
When I run
a Make clean I get the following errors:

Bob,

These errors look like errors that are output by the IBM version of
make.  MET
needs to be built with GNU make, which is called gmake on our IBM
machine.
Please look on your IBM machine to see if you have gmake installed and
use it
instead.

Thanks,

Paul

Gmake solved that problem - compiled with the following errors (these
were at the bottom of the listing):

Should I worry

Bob,

These errors look like errors that are output by
the IBM version of make.  MET
needs to be built with GNU make, which
is called gmake on our IBM machine.
Please look on your IBM machine
to see if you have gmake installed and use it
instead.

Thanks,
Paul

Bob,

Can you please redirect the make output to a log file and send us the
entire
make output?  That will help us diagnose.

Thanks,

Paul

Bob,

John tells me that recompiling BUFRLIB using the following commands
should fix
this problem:
   xlc -c -DUNDERSCORE *.c
   xlf -c -qextname *.f *.F
   ar crv libbufr.a *.o

These are taken from this page:

http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/online_tutorial/METv2.0/compilation/req_libs.php

And then try rebuilding MET.

Thanks,

Paul

It looks like pointstat didn't compile, at least I didn't get a bin
file for it so I need to get past the previous error (previous email)

Bob,

These errors look like errors that are output by
the IBM version of make.  MET
needs to be built with GNU make, which
is called gmake on our IBM machine.
Please look on your IBM machine
to see if you have gmake installed and use it
instead.

Thanks,
Paul

Bob,

Please try to rebuild BUFRLIB using the following steps and then try a
clean
build of MET using gmake.

   xlc -c -DUNDERSCORE *.c
   xlf -c -qextname *.f *.F
   ar crv libbufr.a *.o

Thanks,

Paul

I am recompiling those files.  On the xlf compile, compiling in the

The compile

Bob,

John tells me that recompiling
BUFRLIB using the following commands should fix
this problem:
   xlc
-c -DUNDERSCORE *.c
   xlf -c -qextname *.f *.F
   ar crv libbufr.a
*.o

These are taken from this page:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/online_tutorial/METv2.0/compilation/req_libs.php
And then try rebuilding MET.

Thanks,

Paul

Bob,

John tells me that recompiling BUFRLIB using the following commands
should fix
this problem:
   xlc -c -DUNDERSCORE *.c
   xlf -c -qextname *.f *.F
   ar crv libbufr.a *.o

These are taken from this page:

http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/online_tutorial/METv2.0/compilation/req_libs.php

And then try rebuilding MET.

Thanks,

Paul

Subject: RE: [rt.rap.ucar.edu #38629] Point Stat Question
From: Craig, Robert J Civ USAF AFWA 16 WS/WXN
Time: Thu Jun 24 15:45:59 2010

I found that the addate.f file somehow got corrupted.  I downloaded a
new version and bufrlib compiled as it should and MET compiled as it
should.

Thanks for your help.

Bob

Question

Bob,

John tells me that recompiling BUFRLIB using the
following commands should fix
this problem:
   xlc -c -DUNDERSCORE
*.c
   xlf -c -qextname *.f *.F
   ar crv libbufr.a *.o

These are
taken from this page:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/online_tutorial/METv2.0/compilation/req_libs.php
And then try rebuilding MET.

Thanks,

Paul
