[Met_help] [rt.rap.ucar.edu #84936] History for MODE able to run one netcdf file, but not the other

Wed May 2 10:02:34 MDT 2018

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

Hi,

I'm attempting to run MODE on a file called 
remap_geocatL1.GOES-16.CONUS.2017136.000030.nc, but I'm getting the 
following output (from the top of the file):

DEBUG 1: Default Config File: 
/home/sarahm/met-5.0_update/share/met/config/MODEConfig_default
DEBUG 1: Match Config File: /home/sarahm/JTTI/mode_config_file
DEBUG 1: Merge Config File: /home/sarahm/JTTI/mode_config_file
DEBUG 4: Met2dDataFileFactory::new_met_2d_data_file() -> created new 
Met2dDataFile object of type "FileType_NcMet".
NetCDF: Attribute not found

I have a similar file hrrr_grid_test.nc that has been remapped to a 
different grid, and MODE runs on it just fine. Other than the fact that 
these files are a different grid, I can't find the difference between 
the variables in the file that works and the variables in the file that 
doesn't work. Is there an obvious difference that I am missing? Thanks.

Have a great day!
Sarah

Hi Sarah.

I see that you are having problems running MODE on a NetCDF file.

MODE can read either GRIB files or the NetCDF output of pcp_combine,
but
unfortunately, not NetCDF files in general.  I'm not sure where your
NetCDF
files came from, but I suspect one may be the output of pcp_combine
and the
other is not.

I hope that helps.

Julie

Hi Julie,

Neither NetCDF file was the output of pcp_combine. I figured out the
problem this morning, the answer was adding these global attributes:
:Conventions = "CF-1.0" ;
:History = "created by wgrib2" ;
:GRIB2_grid_template = "30" ;

Have a great day!

Hi Sarah.

MET can currently read a CF-compliant gridded data file, but I had
thought
that version 5.0, which it looked like you are using,   could not.
I'm
very glad to see hat you found and resolved the issue.  Thank you for
letting us know.

Julie
