Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
Dear MET users,
I have a problem with, I think, the point_stat tool.
Here a brief history of what I did, just to check if I made some former
mistake.
I made a 24 h simulation with ARW initialised with GFS and starting
2016020100.
I setted the io_form_history=5 to get a grib1 wrfout file (called
wrfout.grb)
I created an ascii file containing the accumulated precipitation in three
hours for
the same dates filling the eleven fields described in table 4.4 of
Met_user_guide_v5.1
just for two stations.
Here is the file (ascii_obs.txt)
NA AA000A001 20160201_030000 9.458 39.961 813 061 3 813 NA 2.6
NA AA000A001 20160201_060000 9.458 39.961 813 061 3 813 NA 2.6

NA AA000A002 20160201_120000 8.832 40.941 6 061 3 6 NA 13.1
NA AA000A002 20160201_150000 8.832 40.941 6 061 3 6 NA 13.1
NA AA000A002 20160201_180000 8.832 40.941 6 061 3 6 NA 14.0
NA AA000A002 20160201_210000 8.832 40.941 6 061 3 6 NA 15.5
NA AA000A002 20160202_000000 8.832 40.941 6 061 3 6 NA 16.1
Afterward I created an nc file using the tool
./ascii2nc ascii_obs.txt ascii_obs.nc -v 2
The output of "ncdump -v obs_arr ascii_obs.nc" looks fine.
I modified PointStatConfig_default like this
fcst = {
sid_exc = [];
field = [
{
name = "APCP";
level = [ "A03" ];
cat_thresh = [ >1.0 ];
file_type = [ 1 ] ;
init_time = [ "20160201_000000" ];
valid_time = [ "20160202_000000" ];
}
];
}
obs = fcst;
and using "./point_stat wrfout.grb ascii_obs.nc PointStatConfig_modified
-outdir ./ -v 2"
the program just give me the headers of the statistic files and the
following message error
DEBUG 1: User Config File: PointStatConfig_modified
GSL_RNG_TYPE=mt19937
GSL_RNG_SEED=1087746390
DEBUG 1: Forecast File: wrfout_gfs.grib1

WARNING:
WARNING: process_fcst_climo_files() -> no fields matching APCP/A03 found in
file: wrfout_gfs.grib1
WARNING:
.....
I also tried to modify the input file like this
fcst = {
sid_exc = [];
field = [
{
name = "APCP_03";
level = [ "(*,*)" ];
cat_thresh = [ >1.0 ];
file_type = [ 1 ] ;
init_time = [ "20160201_000000" ];
valid_time = [ "20160202_000000" ];
}
];
}
obs = {
message_type = [ "ADPSFC" ];
sid_exc = [];
field = [
{
name = "APCP";
level = [ "A03" ];
cat_thresh = [ >1.0 ];
file_type = [ 1 ] ;
init_time = [ "20160201_000000" ];
valid_time = [ "20160202_000000" ];
}
];
}
but in this case the message error is even worse and I get
DEBUG 1: User Config File: PointStatConfig_modified
ERROR :

'APCP_03' for table version 2
ERROR :

Any advise is really welcome.

Samuele,
I see you are having trouble running the Point-Stat tool. The
relevant
error here is this:
ERROR : VarInfoGrib::set_dict() - unrecognized GRIB1 field
abbreviation
'APCP_03' for table version 2
You are passing Point-Stat a forecast GRIB file (wrfout.grb) but are
specifying in the config file as if it were a gridded NetCDF file.
Let's
back up and use wgrib to inventory your GRIB file and see what
accumulations intervals are present in there:
wgrib wrfout.grb | grep APCP
What do you see? Do you actually have 3-hourly accumulated precip?
If
not, what accumulation interval do you have?
Also, please edit your point observations by specifying a message type
in
the first column. I'd suggest replacing the NA string with ADPSFC,
which
is PREPBUFR message type convention for surface observations.
Assuming you actually have 3-hourly APCP in your GRIB file, use this
in
your Point-Stat config file:
fcst = {
sid_exc = [];
message_type = [ "ADPSFC" ];
field = [
{
name = "APCP";
level = [ "A03" ];
cat_thresh = [ >1.0 ];
}
];
}
obs = fcst;
Thanks,
John Halley Gotway

Dear John,
first of all thank you for your kind reply.
The main error I found is that the APCP field is not included in my
wrfout.grb file, but I saw the ACPCP parameter, so I changed my
ascii_obs.txt file like this
ADPSFC AA000A001 20160201_030000 9.458 39.961 813 063 3 813 NA 2.6
ADPSFC AA000A001 20160201_060000 9.458 39.961 813 063 6 813 NA 2.6
ADPSFC AA000A001 20160201_090000 9.458 39.961 813 063 9 813 NA 2.9
ADPSFC AA000A001 20160201_120000 9.458 39.961 813 063 12 813 NA 3.6
ADPSFC AA000A001 20160201_150000 9.458 39.961 813 063 15 813 NA 7.1
ADPSFC AA000A001 20160201_180000 9.458 39.961 813 063 18 813 NA 12.0
ADPSFC AA000A001 20160201_210000 9.458 39.961 813 063 21 813 NA 12.5
ADPSFC AA000A001 20160202_000000 9.458 39.961 813 063 24 813 NA 14.2
ADPSFC AA000A002 20160201_030000 8.832 40.941 6 063 3 6 NA 4.2
ADPSFC AA000A002 20160201_060000 8.832 40.941 6 063 6 6 NA 5.6
ADPSFC AA000A002 20160201_090000 8.832 40.941 6 063 9 6 NA 12.9
ADPSFC AA000A002 20160201_120000 8.832 40.941 6 063 12 6 NA 13.1
ADPSFC AA000A002 20160201_150000 8.832 40.941 6 063 15 6 NA 13.1
ADPSFC AA000A002 20160201_180000 8.832 40.941 6 063 18 6 NA 14.0
ADPSFC AA000A002 20160201_210000 8.832 40.941 6 063 21 6 NA 15.5
ADPSFC AA000A002 20160202_000000 8.832 40.941 6 063 24 6 NA 16.1
and I generated again the ascii_obs.nc using ascii2nc.
I modified the PointStatConfig_default file in this way
fcst = {
wind_thresh = [ NA ];
message_type = [ "ADPSFC" ];
sid_exc = [];
field = [
{
name = "ACPCP";
level = [ "L000" ];
cat_thresh = [ >1.0 ];
}
];
}
obs = fcst;
and with the command "./point_stat wrfout.grb ascii_obs.nc
PointStatConfig_modified -outdir ./ -v 2"
I obtained apparently no error messages
DEBUG 1: User Config File: PointStatConfig_modified

I am worry the problem is in my wrfout.grb file, so I will try with

Subject: Troubles with point_stat
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Thu Feb 04 09:36:16 2016
Samuele,
When you run Point-Stat, try increasing the verbosity level to 3 or 4
(-v
4) to get more diagnostic information about why counts were or were
not
used.
At this point, I think it'd be easiest to just have you send me some
sample
data. I'll run it here and provide you some suggestions.
Please post ascii_obs.txt, wrfout.grb, and your Point-Stat
configuration
files to our anonymous ftp site following these directions:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/met_help.php#ftp
Please let me know when you've posted these files, and I'll go grab
them.
Thanks,
John

Subject: Troubles with point_stat
From: Samuele Salis
Time: Thu Feb 04 10:10:49 2016
Ok John,
I uploaded my files.
Running a level 4 for verbosity I get
DEBUG 2: Processing ACPCP/L0 versus ACPCP/L0, for observation type
ADPSFC,
over region FULL, for interpolation method NEAREST(1), using 0 pairs.
DEBUG 3: Number of matched pairs = 0
DEBUG 3: Observations processed = 16
DEBUG 3: Rejected: SID exclusion = 0
DEBUG 3: Rejected: GRIB code = 0
DEBUG 3: Rejected: valid time = 16
DEBUG 3: Rejected: bad obs value = 0
DEBUG 3: Rejected: off the grid = 0
DEBUG 3: Rejected: level mismatch = 0
DEBUG 3: Rejected: quality marker = 0
DEBUG 3: Rejected: message type = 0
DEBUG 3: Rejected: masking region = 0
DEBUG 3: Rejected: bad fcst value = 0
DEBUG 3: Rejected: duplicates = 0
I see all valid times are rejected, I guess something is wrong there,
but
at the moment I cannot solve the problem.
Thanks,
Samuele

Subject: Troubles with point_stat
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Thu Feb 04 10:54:31 2016
Samuele,
Great! I'm glad you were able to diagnose that behavior. I see that
the
timestamps of your observations range from 20160201 to 20160202.
I don't know the actual timestamp of your forecast GRIB data, but you
should be able to see it by running wgrib on it (add -V for verbose
output).
The matching time window for Point-Stat is configurable in the
"obs_window"
section of the config file. The beginning and ending times of the
window
are defined as a number of seconds relative to the forecast valid
time.
For example, there are 3600 seconds in an hour, so the following would
match any observations +/- 1 hour around the forecast valid time:
obs_window = {
beg = -3600;
end = 3600;
}
Please try setting your time window accordingly and rerun.
Thanks,
John

Subject: Troubles with point_stat
From: Samuele Salis
Time: Fri Feb 05 04:13:44 2016
Ok John,
thanks for your helping.
I enlarged the obs_window until all the data have been included.
Now I get an output for every statistical processing. To check the
goodness of my output now is another step and to do that I have
a lot to study.
Thanks,
Samuele

Subject: Troubles with point_stat
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Fri Feb 05 07:59:06 2016
Samuele,
Great, I'm glad you were able to figure it out. You should run point-
stat
once for each model output time. Typically, users have more than 2
observation locations at which they're verifying. And you'd run
configure
it to only use observations close to the valid time of the forecast.
Just let us know if more questions or issues arise.
Thanks
John
