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

Dear Mr. or Mrs.,
Thanks a lot in advance for your help on my another problem.
I just found there were no CNT output in my point2stat verification
results.

Now, my focus is first  to find the forecast bias and variance, and, hence,
I think CNT is what I need . Right?
If that is the case,  what is the reason that there are no such output ?
I searched the conf files and found :
^^
# Message types, if all message types are to be returned, leave this empty,
# otherwise indicate the message types of interest.
POINT_STAT_MESSAGE_TYPE =
~
Seems all line types (including CNT) should be given.
Your help will be appreciated.
Ting

Hello Ting,

It looks like your point-stat output isn't including the CNT
statistics you were expecting.

You are correct that when you leave the MESSAGE_TYPE set to empty
string, you are requesting all *message* types to be considered for
evaluation.

In your MET config file, have you set in your output_flag,  CNT=BOTH?

e.g. output_flag = {
                  fho = NONE;
                  ...
                  cnt = BOTH;
                 ...
    }

so that the continuous statistics will be output?  My apologies if you
already did that, I'm just trying to eliminate the most obvious
culprit at this point.

Regards,
Minna

Hi, Minna,
Thank you so much!
However, would you please tell me, for metplus,  in which config file
I can
find that parameter :output_flag ?  I failed to find it in my metplus
directory.
Regards,
Ting
