Last friday, I sent you this e-mail but I had problems and it wasn't be sent. I return to send you it:

David,
In the future, please upload large files (>2MB) to our FTP site using
the instruction on this site:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/met_help.php#ftp
Our mail system may not handle large file attachments properly.
Thanks,
Paul

David,
The problem is that the model data file that you sent me does not
contain 1hr precipitation. Instead, it contains an 18
hour accumulation, as you can see using the wgrib tool:
$ wgrib WRFPRS_d01.018 | grep APCP
254:2256676:d=09021000:APCP:kpds5=61:kpds6=1:kpds7=0:TR=4:P1=0:P2=18:TimeU=1:sfc:0-
18hr acc:NAve=0
MET has a tool called pcp_combine which can be used to subtract
accumulation intervals in model data files. If you have
a 17 hour forecast (WRFPRS_d01.017), it probably contains a 17hr
accumulation. You can use pcp_combine to subtract the
two intervals to get a 1hr interval valid at 20090210_18:
$MET_BASE/bin/pcp_combine -subtract WRFPRS_d01.018 18
WRFPRS_d01.017 17 WRFPRS_d01.018.nc -v 3
Then, you can pass the file generated by pcp_combine,
WRFPRS_d01.018.nc to point_stat as the model data file with the
following config file settings:
fcst_field[] = [ "APCP_01(*,*)" ];
obs_field[] = [ "APCP/A1" ];
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Paul

David,
Are you using the latest patched version of METv3.1 compiled with GNU?
If not, instructions for installing the latest
patches can be found on this site:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/known_issues/METv3.1/index.php
Please let me know if you compiled MET with a compiler family other
than GNU.
Also, are you sure that your input file METv3.1/WPP/MP3/WRFPRS_d01.018
is identical to the one you sent me? I ran the
following simple test to make sure that the field APCP/A18 is present:
$ $MET_BASE/bin/plot_data_plane WRFPRS_d01.018
WRFPRS_d01.018_APCP18.ps "APCP/A18" -v 5
DEBUG 1: Opening data file: WRFPRS_d01.018
DEBUG 3: MetGrib1DataFile::data_plane_array() -> Found range match for
VarInfo "APCP/A18" in GRIB record 254 of GRIB
file "WRFPRS_d01.018".
DEBUG 3: MetGrib1DataFile::data_plane_array() -> Found 1 GRIB records
matching VarInfo "APCP/A18" in GRIB file
"WRFPRS_d01.018".
DEBUG 1: Creating postscript file: WRFPRS_d01.018_APCP18.ps
The plot_data_plane tool will generate a plot of the specified field
if it runs successfully. I often use it to make
sure that MET can find the correct fields in my data files. Can you
please run a similar test on your data file? If
not, can you please send me the output of the command:
wgrib METv3.1/WPP/MP3/WRFPRS_d01.018 | grep APCP
Thanks,
Paul

The only difference that I can to observe is that with
plot_data_plane tool it shows APCP/A18 while with pcp_ combine tool
it shows APCP/A180000

David,
Can you please try a simpler pcp_combine command:
$ $MET_BASE/bin/pcp_combine -add WRFPRS_d01.018 18 WRFPRS_d01.018.nc
-v 5
DEBUG 2: Performing addition command for 1 files.
DEBUG 1: Reading input file: WRFPRS_d01.018
DEBUG 3: MetGrib1DataFile::data_plane_array() -> Found range match for
VarInfo "APCP/A180000" in GRIB record 254 of GRIB
file "WRFPRS_d01.018".
DEBUG 3: MetGrib1DataFile::data_plane_array() -> Found 1 GRIB records
matching VarInfo "APCP/A180000" in GRIB file
"WRFPRS_d01.018".
DEBUG 1: Writing output file: WRFPRS_d01.018.nc
Basically, this command just converts the single field from this file
into the MET gridded NetCDF format. Did you look
at the postscript plot file that you generated with plot_data_plane to
make sure that it looks reasonable? Can you
please send me the output of the command:
wgrib METv3.1/WPP/MP3/WRFPRS_d01.018 | grep APCP
Thanks,
Paul

Subject: Error Point Stat (1)
From: Paul Oldenburg
Time: Wed Aug 22 09:54:57 2012
David,
I extracted the single record of interest from your model data file
using the following command:
wgrib -d 254 -o WRFPRS_d01.018_APCP -i -grib WRFPRS_d01.018
Can you please try to use this file as the input to pcp_combine?
METv3.1/bin/pcp_combine -add METv3.1/WPP/MP3/WRFPRS_d01.018_APCP 18
WRFPRS_d01.018.nc -v 5
We suspect that maybe there is a problem with how pcp_combine is
searching the record inventory on your system.
Unfortunately, we are not able to reproduce this problem, otherwise,
it would probably be very simple to fix. Please
let me know how it works.
Thanks,
Paul

David,
I'm not sure if there is anything else I can do without being able to
reproduce your problem on my system. It is
possible that METv4.0 might work, and at least it will offer more
functionality for selecting records from the input
file. If you are inclined, can you please install METv4.0 using the
instructions here:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/online_tutorial/METv4.0/compilation/index.php
Make sure to run the test scripts for METv4.0 and watch for errors
similar to the one you reported. Then, try running
the same pcp_combine command using METv4.0. If it doesn't work, try
this command instead (making sure that MET_BASE
points at an instance of METv4.0):
$MET_BASE/bin/pcp_combine -add WRFPRS_d01.018 18 WRFPRS_d01.018.nc
-config 'name="APCP";level="R254";' -v 5
Sorry I don't have a better solution at this point. Please let me
know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Paul
