[Met_help] [rt.rap.ucar.edu #43606] History for METv3.0 Problem with NAM

[RAL HelpDesk {for John Halley Gotway}]

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

We have been running mode (Version 3.0) to track pressure centers for NAM,
WRF, and AVN over CONUS.  The MODE ANALYSIS is finding the object in the WRF
and AVN files but doesn't find it in the NAM files though a visual
inspection of the NAM files shows there was an object that met all the
criteria.  To prove my theory I edited the NAM obj.txt file and changed the
model name on the fcst and obs lines that match my criteria to BOB. Then
when I ran mode analysis using BOB and found the objects.  So the problem
seems to be with the name NAM.  I was told that version 3.0 fixed this
problem but that doesn't seem to be the case.  Below is the mode analysis
line and attached is the mode obj.txt file.

Bob,

Please take a look on the MET known issue page:
   http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/known_issues/METv3.0/index.php

We posted a bugfix for this problem on 10/01/2010.  Please look at the
top of that page, retrieve the tarball containing the latest set of
patches for MET, apply them to your METv3.0 code, and recompile.

That should fix the problem.

Thanks,
John
