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

Hi All, I am having and issue with stat analysis.  The user's manual states that the user can specify a beginning and ending valid times for the analysis to be performed over.  When I add the -fcst_valid_beg or -fcst_valid_end flags followed by the dates in the proper format, I will get no stat lines retained.  If I remove them, then it finds the required lines.  Below is the job string:

DEBUG 4: Initializing Job 1 to default job: "-job aggregate_stat -model WRF -fcst_valid_beg 20160815_000000 -fcst_valid_end 20160828_120000 -line_type MPR -by FCST_VAR -by FCST_THRESH -by FCST_LEAD -by INTERP_PNTS -out_line_type PSTD -out_fcst_thresh >=0 -out_fcst_thresh >=0.1 -out_fcst_thresh >=0.2 -out_fcst_thresh >=0.3 -out_fcst_thresh >=0.4 -out_fcst_thresh >=0.5 -out_fcst_thresh >=0.6 -out_fcst_thresh >=0.7 -out_fcst_thresh >=0.8 -out_fcst_thresh >=0.9 -out_fcst_thresh >=1.0 -out_obs_thresh >=1 -out_alpha 0.05000 "

Hi Bob,

I tried to replicate the behavior you described... but the
-fcst_valid_beg
and -fcst_valid_end options work as expected.

However when I looked closely at the STAT-Analysis job and sample data
you
sent, I do see a problem.  You're searching for "WRF" in the MODEL
column
(-model WRF) but your data has "WRF-t47b" in that column.  Perhaps
that's
the reason for 0 matching lines?  Try using "-model WRF-t47b", or you
could
use "-by model" instead.

Thanks,
John
