Hi Bob,
I see you're having trouble getting climo data to be used in your run
of
Point-Stat. Thanks for sending the sample data. That made it a lot
easier
to debug.
We initially setup the climo logic to handle 2 cases:
(1) make the climo month match the month currently being evaluated
(2) make the climo month *and* day match the month and day currently
being evaluated
Your case falls into neither category and that's why you're not
getting a
match. Here's the relevant timestamps:
ncdump -h 53a8fcf9-57db-4b93-9c55-843bd8cb53f5 | grep valid_time
APCP_06:valid_time = "20180618_120000" ;
ncdump -h cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.nc | grep valid_time
CFSR_APCP_T01_00:valid_time = "19700101_000000" ;
Your forecast data is valid in June while the climo data is valid in
January. I suspect what you'd like to see is a 3rd option where the
climo
timestamp doesn't need to match anything in particular in the forecast
timestamp. But that logic doesn't currently exist.
So for testing, I copied/modified the CFSR dataset to give a timestamp
in
June:
> date -ud ''1970-06-01' UTC '00:00:00'' +%s
13046400
ncdump cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.nc | sed
's/"19700101_000000"/"19700601_000000"/g' | sed 's/valid_time_ut =
"0"/valid_time_ut = "13046400"/g' > cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.ncdump
ncgen -o cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6_MOD.nc cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.ncdump
Then I reran using cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6_MOD.nc and increased the
time-step to be 24 hours:
climo_mean = {
//file_name = "/h/data/global/WXQC/data/climo/cfsr/
cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.nc";
file_name = "cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6_MOD.nc";
field = [
{
name = "CFSR_APCP_T01_00";
level = "A6";
prob = TRUE;
cat_thresh = [ >= .01 ];
}
];
regrid = {
vld_thresh = 0.5;
method = NEAREST;
width = 1;
}
time_interp_method = DW_MEAN;
match_day = FALSE;
time_step = 24*60*60;
}
And I got a matching climo file:
DEBUG 3: For forecast valid at 20180618_120000, found 1 climatology
field(s) valid at 20180618_000000.
Seems like we should add some more useful DEBUG messages to the code
to
help determine why climo fields are not used.
Thanks,
John

Bob,
OK, as a result of this, I added the following Debug(3) messages to
the
development version of MET when processing climo data:
Case 1: Months don't match
DEBUG 3: Skipping climatology field whose month (1) does not match the
month of the forecast valid time (6) from file:
cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.nc
Case 2: Month and days don't match but match_day = TRUE
DEBUG 3: Skipping climatology field since "match_day" is TRUE but the
month
(6) and day (1) do not match the month (6) and day (18) of the
forecast
valid time from file: cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6_MOD.nc
Case 3: Time difference exceeds the time_step setting:
DEBUG 3: Skipping climatology field since time offset exceeds the
specified
"time_step" (43200 >= 21600) from file: cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6_MOD.nc
Hopefully these messages will point other users in the right direction
in
the future. Do they seem clear enough?
Thanks,
John

Okay, I will see if we can rebuild the climo files with the correct
valid time.

Hi Bob,
I see you're having trouble getting climo data to be used in your run
of Point-Stat. Thanks for sending the sample data. That made it a
lot easier to debug.
We initially setup the climo logic to handle 2 cases:
(1) make the climo month match the month currently being evaluated
(2) make the climo month *and* day match the month and day currently
being evaluated
Your case falls into neither category and that's why you're not
getting a match. Here's the relevant timestamps:
ncdump -h 53a8fcf9-57db-4b93-9c55-843bd8cb53f5 | grep valid_time
APCP_06:valid_time = "20180618_120000" ; ncdump -h
cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.nc | grep valid_time
CFSR_APCP_T01_00:valid_time = "19700101_000000" ;
Your forecast data is valid in June while the climo data is valid in
January. I suspect what you'd like to see is a 3rd option where the
climo timestamp doesn't need to match anything in particular in the
forecast timestamp. But that logic doesn't currently exist.
So for testing, I copied/modified the CFSR dataset to give a timestamp
in
June:
> date -ud ''1970-06-01' UTC '00:00:00'' +%s
13046400
ncdump cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.nc | sed
's/"19700101_000000"/"19700601_000000"/g' | sed 's/valid_time_ut =
"0"/valid_time_ut = "13046400"/g' > cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.ncdump
ncgen -o cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6_MOD.nc cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.ncdump
Then I reran using cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6_MOD.nc and increased the
time-step to be 24 hours:
climo_mean = {
//file_name = "/h/data/global/WXQC/data/climo/cfsr/
cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.nc";
file_name = "cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6_MOD.nc";
field = [
{
name = "CFSR_APCP_T01_00";
level = "A6";
prob = TRUE;
cat_thresh = [ >= .01 ];
}
];
regrid = {
vld_thresh = 0.5;
method = NEAREST;
width = 1;
}
time_interp_method = DW_MEAN;
match_day = FALSE;
time_step = 24*60*60;
}
And I got a matching climo file:
DEBUG 3: For forecast valid at 20180618_120000, found 1 climatology
field(s) valid at 20180618_000000.
Seems like we should add some more useful DEBUG messages to the code
to help determine why climo fields are not used.

Sounds good. FYI, here are the ncdump/ncgen commands I used to do
that:
ncdump cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.nc | sed
's/"19700101_000000"/"19700601_000000"/g' | sed 's/valid_time_ut =
"0"/valid_time_ut = "13046400"/g' > cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.ncdump
ncgen -o cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6_MOD.nc cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.ncdump
Alternatively, the "ncatted" NCO utility can be used to modify the
NetCDF
variable attributes. You could check to see if that's on your system.
Thanks,
John

I tried the commands you used and that worked here.
Thanks

Climo File
Sounds good. FYI, here are the ncdump/ncgen commands I used to do
that:
ncdump cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.nc | sed
's/"19700101_000000"/"19700601_000000"/g' | sed 's/valid_time_ut =
"0"/valid_time_ut = "13046400"/g' > cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.ncdump
ncgen -o cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6_MOD.nc cfsr_freq_p6_world_mo_6.ncdump
Alternatively, the "ncatted" NCO utility can be used to modify the
NetCDF variable attributes. You could check to see if that's on your
system.
Thanks,
John
