Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
HI Julie,
I'm following the userguide and testing the PCP Functionality
<https://dtcenter.org/metplus-practical-session-guide-july-2019/session-1-metplus-setupgrid-grid/met-tool-pcp-combine/pcp-combine-tool-run-sum-command>
and "pcp_combine" can't find the following directory :
search_pcp_dir() -> cannot open search directory:
/scratch4/BMC/dtc/Julie.Prestopnik/METplus/METplus-2.2_sample_data/met_test/data/sample_fcst/2005080700
Is this data in another directory? I checked and the "met_test" directory
does not exist under METplus-2.2_sample_data
Thank you
Tatiana

Hi Tatiana.
My apologies. Somehow I missed that sample dataset when I was getting
them
yesterday. I just grabbed it and put it in its proper place. You can
see
that it is now where it should be:
[Julie.Prestopnik at hfe07 METplus-2.2_sample_data]$ ls
> /scratch4/BMC/dtc/Julie.Prestopnik/METplus/METplus-
2.2_sample_data/met_test/data/sample_fcst/2005080700

Sorry about that!

Julie,
I believe this file is missing:

I'm in this step and can't find that file:

Subject: Re: New to METplus: help setup for tutorial
From: George McCabe

Hi Tatiana,
I may have mistakenly misinformed you on the location to set
MET_BUILD_BASE. The location relative to bin/grid_stat is where MET is
installed, but the source code may not be in the same location. I am
not
sure of the location of the actual MET_BUILD_BASE on hera, but it will
contain other directories besides 'bin' and 'share' such as 'src' and
'data.'
However, for this specific instruction in the tutorial, the contents
of the
data directory can also be found in $METPLUS_DATA/met_data/data, so
you
could refer to that path if you can't find where MET_BUILD_BASE should
be
set and you want to move forward with the tutorial.
Thanks,
George

Subject: Re: New to METplus: help setup for tutorial
From: Julie Prestopnik

Hi Tatiana.
Looking on this page of the tutorial:
https://dtcenter.org/metplus-practical-session-guide-july-
2019/session-1-metplus-setupgrid-grid/metplus-setup/metplus-initial-
setup
I see the following:
*MET_BUILD_BASE* is the full path to the MET installation
(/path/to/met-X.Y)
And as George noted "The location relative to bin/grid_stat is where
MET is
installed, but the source code may not be in the same location.",
however,
I didn't see his email update until I had already written this up
(then
later added this sentence). :)
On hera, it looks like the MET_BUILD_BASE should be set to
/contrib/met/8.1/met-8.1. With that value for MET_BUILD BASE, we can
see
that the file then exists at the location:
[Julie.Prestopnik at hfe09 ~]$ ls
> /contrib/met/8.1/met-8.1/data/poly/ncep_vx_regions.pdf
>
>
/contrib/met/8.1/met-8.1/data/poly/ncep_vx_regions.pdf
>
I hope that helps!
Julie

Subject: Re: New to METplus: help setup for tutorial
From: Tatiana Gonzalez - NOAA Federal
Time: Mon Oct 28 13:10:04 2019
Julie,
Thank you. I see the file in MET_BUILD BASE=/contrib/met/8.1/met-8.1
just one comment that is probably specific to hera only, so not sure
if its
relevant to the overall tutorial, on the previous instructions here
<https://dtcenter.org/metplus-practical-session-guide-july-
2019/session-1-metplus-setupgrid-grid/met-tool-pcp-combine/pcp-
combine-tool-add-subtract-commands>,
the MET_BUILD_BASE assumes is /contrib/met/8.1/ since the 'share'
folder is at the same level as met-8.1
plot_data_plane \
subtract_WINDS.nc \
subtract_WINDS.ps \
'name="UGRD_MINUS_VGRD"; level="(*,*)";' \
-plot_range -15 15 \
-title "10-meter UGRD minus VGRD" \
-color_table
${MET_BUILD_BASE}/share/met/colortables/NCL_colortables/posneg_2.ctable
I corrected this by directing to the parent directory:
${MET_BUILD_BASE}
*/../*share/
plot_data_plane subtract_WINDS.nc subtract_WINDS.ps
'name="UGRD_MINUS_VGRD"; level="(*,*)";' -plot_range -15 15 -title
"10-meter UGRD minus VGRD" -color_table
${MET_BUILD_BASE}/../share/met/colortables/NCL_colortables/posneg_2.ctable
thank you

Subject: Re: New to METplus: help setup for tutorial
From: Julie Prestopnik

Hi Tatiana.
I had wanted to tell you that MET_BUILD_BASE should be set to
/contrib/met/8.1/ because of the "share" directory being at the same
level,
but I noticed that the file you referenced had a "data" subdirectory
(${MET_BUILD_BASE}/data/poly/ncep_vx_regions.pdf) I am not very
familiar
with that tutorial and was unsure why the file was referenced in its
"data"
location as opposed to its installed "share" location:
[Julie.Prestopnik at hfe06 ~]$ ls
> /contrib/met/8.1/share/met/poly/ncep_vx_regions.pdf
> /contrib/met/8.1/share/met/poly/ncep_vx_regions.pdf
>
In case it is useful information, I wanted to let you know that the
ncep_vx_regions.pdf file is located there as well.
Thanks,
Julie

Julie,
Yes, I was just struggling with that recent change. I had to reset the
MET_BUILD_BASE to /contrib/met/8.1/
since the rest of the tutorial and scripts look for files under
/contrib/met/8.1/
I'll just take a note where ncep_vx_regions.pdf is stored.
Thank you

Subject: Re: New to METplus: help setup for tutorial
From: Tatiana Gonzalez - NOAA Federal
Time: Thu Nov 14 11:33:55 2019
Hi Julie and met_help,
Do you know where can I get real-time observation netcdf files (or
archived
data)? In particular like the input file for the MODE functionality
shown
here:
https://dtcenter.org/metplus-practical-session-guide-nrl-july-
2019/session-4-mode-mtd/met-tool-mode
I would like to use this functionality so I'm looking for observation
files,
Thank you
Tatiana

Subject: Re: New to METplus: help setup for tutorial
From: George McCabe
Time: Thu Nov 14 11:37:21 2019
Hi Tatiana,
In terms of archived files, there is a tarball attached to the METplus
release with the data used for these exercises. It is found here:
https://github.com/NCAR/METplus/releases/download/v2.2/sample_data-
met_test-8.1.tgz
Someone else may be better able to point you to a real time data feed
of
this data. I hope that helps.
Thanks,
George

Hi George,
Thank you, I had already downloaded those sample files. I was hoping
to
select specific cases. Hopefully someone in your team can point me in
the
right direction to get more cases. Or maybe if someone knows who
within
NOAA I can contact to get the files.
I appreciate any information you can provide.

Hi Tatiana,
My name is John Halley Gotway and I work with George and Julie. Julie
tells me you're looking for sources of real-time observation data sets
as
input to MODE. While technically MODE can be run on any type of
gridded
data, it has most commonly be applied to precipitation data. The MET
website does include some links to sources of input data:
https://dtcenter.org/community-code/model-evaluation-tools-met/input-
data
StageIV is a commonly used analysis of precipitation covering the
continental United States:
https://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/mmb/ylin/pcpanl/stage4/
RTMA and URMA are commonly used analyses for other variables:
https://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/products/rtma/
Or you could pull satellite-based TRMM observations of precip.
Choosing which dataset(s) to use usually depends on several
questions...
- What part of the globe are you modelling?
- What model variables are you trying to verify?
- What resolution and time frequency is needed?
The file formats really shouldn't matter. Most NCEP products are
distributed in GRIB2 format, but MET can read those very easily. Most
of
their data can be pulled from their public ftp sites.
If you locate a dataset you'd like to use but have difficulty using it
in
MET, please let us know. Hopefully we can help you figure out how to
get
that data into MET.
Thanks,
John
