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

Hello

a) I run the ncks utility to obtain selected forecast hours from my
WRF-ARW  wrfout file (09Z to 15Z).

b) I run p_interp to obtain the pressure levels from the a)  file and I got
wrfout_d01_2011-04-07_09:00:00_PLEV

c) I create an observation file with ADPUPA levels and convert it to netcdf
using the ascii2nc program.

d) I run  PointStat
/u/charo/METv3.1/bin/point_stat
/u/charo/P_INTERP/wrfout_d01_2011-04-07_09:00:00_PLEV SalidaDeUnDia.nc
PointStatConfig_tutorial_run1 -v 2

and I got the following error message:
DEBUG 1: Default Config File:
/u/charo/METv3.1/data/config/PointStatConfig_default

e) I check the TT fields on the _PLEV file and they look OK. I send you the
Config file


Thank you very much for your help

Gisela,

The syntax for specifying the level information in a p_interp field is
a little confusing.  The level index in the
second position only accepts a range, specified like 1-1.  The syntax
in general is: {lower}-{upper}, but in this case
both the lower and upper level is 1.  Try the following setting in
your point_stat config file
PointStatConfig_tutorial_run1 to see if that will fix the problem:

fcst_field [] = [ "TT(0,1-1,*,*)" ];

Sorry for the confusion.  Please let me know if you have any
questions.

Thanks,

Paul
