[Met_help] [rt.rap.ucar.edu #62351] History for Using WPP 3.1.1 with MET 4.1

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

Hi John, 

We have finally upgraded to MET 4.1! I've come across the following 
problem while migrating everything over from MET 2.0: When I use MET 4.1 
PointStat on Grib1 forecast files generated by WPP 3.1.1, all my _mpr.txt 
files record the forecasted value (for every field) as 0.0000. (The 
resultant statistics are of course abysmal.) However, if I use  MET 2.0 
PointStat on the exact same Grib1 forecast files, I get normal looking 
forecast values recorded in the _mpr.txt files and normal looking 
statistics. I get this behavior with the 4.1 version even when I use the 
default PointStat config file that came with the download. Do you know of 
any incompatibilities  between MET 4.1 and an older version of WPP? 

Thanks for any help or insight with this issue.

Kiana

Kiana,

I am not aware of any incompatibilities with WPP 3.1.1.  You could try
turning the verbosity level up to 4 for both to see if there's
additional info that might tell you what's going on.  So run
METv2.0 using the -v 4 option and then do the same for METv4.1.
Inspect the output printed the screen to see if anything jumps out at
you.

If not, you could send me a sample GRIB1 file, along with the point
observations you're using, and the Point-Stat config file.  I'll run
it here using METv2.0 and METv4.1 to see if I can reproduce the
behavior and figure out what's going on.  You can post the files to
our anonymous ftp site, following these instructions:

There have been a lot of updates between versions 2.0 and 4.1
(http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/release_notes/index.php),
so it's possible that one of those is the cause for the differences
you're seeing.

Thanks,
John

John,

I've uploaded a sample forecast file, observation file, and 4.1
PointStat
config file to the ftp site ("Ross_data" directory). I get the same
number
of matched pairs with PointStat 2.0 vs. PointStat 4.1. The only
difference
is that the reported forecast values in the _mpr.txt files are all
0.0000
with 4.1.

Thanks again for all the help.

Kiana

Subject: Using WPP 3.1.1 with MET 4.1
From: John Halley Gotway

Kiana,

Great, I pulled your data from the ftp site.  In your config file, I
see that you're verifying 900mb temperature.  My first step was to
plot that field using the plot_data_plane utility in METv4.1:
    METv4.1/bin/plot_data_plane WRFPRS_d01.00
WRFPRS_d01.00_TMP_P900.ps 'name="TMP"; level="P900";'

I converted the resulting postscript image to a png, and it's
attached.

I used the METv4.1 PointStat configuration file you sent, and then I
set up an equivalent one for METv2.0.  Both are attached.

When I run METv2.0 and METv4.1, both result in finding the same 55
matched pairs.  Both of the matched pair (MPR) files are attached as
well.  They do differ out in the 5th decimal place due to a
precision issue we fixed somewhere between METv2.0 and METv4.1.  But
they're certainly not all 0's.  Have you tried executing a "make
clean" followed by a "make" for METv4.1?  If not, please give that
a try.

So I'm not able to reproduce the behavior you're reporting.

If doing a clean build of METv4.1 doesn't help, can you please send me
your "user_defs.mk" file and the output of make "make_met.log".  I
could inspect those to see if anything jumps out at me.

Thanks,
John
