Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
Hi METplus,
I was trying to use your newly installed METplus-4.0.0 with met/10.0.0
and metplus/4.0.0 loaded. When I issue line command:
master_metplus.py -c Plotter_fcstGFS_obsGFS_RPlotting_5.conf -c
usecase_5.conf
It gives an error message saying that TCPairsETCConfig was missing except
for METplus-4.0.0_beta3.

Please see that for METplus-4.0.0 and MET-plus-4.0.0-beta5, there is file "
TCMPRPlotterConfig_customize" only, while for METplus-4.0.0-beta3, there is
another file " TCPairsETCConfig".

Hi Guang Ping,
The wrapped MET config files in the METplus repository use_cases
directories are no longer needed in favor of always using the files in
parm/met_config. This prevents time-consuming maintenance of ensuring
that
the wrapped MET config files are in sync.
If you look at the Plotter_fcstGFS_obsGFS_RPlotting.conf file, you
will see
that it now uses the parm/met_config/TCPairsConfig_wrapped file
instead of
TCPairsETCConfig. I would run a diff command on the conf file in the
repository and your conf file that you modified to see if anything has
changed in the repository version.
diff Plotter_fcstGFS_obsGFS_RPlotting_5.conf
/contrib/METplus/METplus-
4.0.0/parm/use_cases/model_applications/tc_and_extra_tc/Plotter_fcstGFS_obsGFS_RPlotting.conf
Most likely the only change you will need to make to your file is
updating
the TC_PAIRS_CONFIG_FILE value to point to the correct wrapped MET
config
file:
TC_PAIRS_CONFIG_FILE = {PARM_BASE}/met_config/TCPairsConfig_wrapped
Let me know if you have any issues with this and I can take a closer
look.
Thanks,
George

Hi George,
It worked after I followed your instructions! Thanks.
One more question about plotting. I thought John Opatz added 2-D
tracks
plots to the METplus-4.0.0-beta5, which should be in the METplus-4.0.0
build. Am I right?
Are there any other plot types in this build? Currently it includes
following plots in the config file:
TCMPR_PLOTTER_PLOT_TYPES = MEAN,MEDIAN,BOXPLOT
Thanks again,
Guang Ping

Hi Guang Ping,
I thought I'd chime in and mention that the 2D track capability you
mentioned is currently produced via CyclonePlotter, not TCMPRPlotter.
If you want to look at that use case (which also utilizes a User
Script and
TCPairs), it's in your METplus installation, under
parm/use_cases/model_applications/tc_and_extra_tc/CyclonePlotter_fcstGFS_obsGFS_OPC.
To run it, you'll need additional packages for support, including
cartopy
and matplotlib. The documentation is linked here
<https://metplus.readthedocs.io/en/main_v4.0/generated/model_applications/tc_and_extra_tc/CyclonePlotter_fcstGFS_obsGFS_OPC.html#cycloneplotter-
use-case-for-opc-emc-cyclone-data>
.
If you have any questions, let me know.

Subject: missing METplus config file on Hera
From: Guang Lou - NOAA Affiliate
Time: Fri May 14 13:50:16 2021
Hi John,
I set up a use case per your instruction, the run generated partial
adeck
and then it's stuck in there forever. Please see:
/scratch2/NCEPDEV/fv3-cam/noscrub/Guang.Ping.Lou/metplus_map/
The line command on Hera is:
run_metplus.py -c CyclonePlotter_fcstGFS_obsGFS_OPC.conf -c
usecase.conf
Hera has anaconda and intelpython/3.6.8 and in my test anaconda is
loaded.
Because it's stuck there, the scripts may not have come to use cartopy
and
matplotlib just yet, but i'm not sure about that though.
Thanks,
Guang Ping

John O, I had assumed this was an issue for me (John HG) to
investigate but
realize that you're working with Guang Ping on this.
I just reassigned the ticket from George to you:
https://rt.rap.ucar.edu/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=99866
Thanks,

Subject: missing METplus config file on Hera
From: John Opatz
Time: Mon May 17 15:56:13 2021
Hi Gaung Ping,
I thought I'd provide a status update on this issue. I've dug into the
problems you've described and have some partial solutions.
The first is that in your personal config file, usecase.conf, you're
currently setting the MET_INSTALL_DIR as
MET_INSTALL_DIR = /contrib/met/10.0.0/met-10.0.0/.
Julie confirmed that this is no longer needed, as she's been able to
set
that up in the /contrib installation for METplus. So by removing that,
the
script should no longer be hung up (it was previously not finding the
tc_pairs tool).
A second item I wanted to bring to your attention was the file you're
using
as input, trak.gfso.atcf_gen.glbl.2020100700, seems to have only those
warning times of 2020100700, and fewer storms than we found in the
trak
file you provided us some time ago (trak.gfso.atcf_gen.glbl.2020).
There's
nothing wrong with using the input file you're using; I just want to
make
sure you understand the number of plotted storms you'll see from your
run
will be more sparse than the use case imagery.
There is still a problem remaining that we're working on fixing,
concerning
the last tool in the use case: cyclone_plotter. The plotting routine
relies
on cartopy and matplotlib, which have their own dependencies. While
Hera
does have a version of cartopy available, it seems to be missing one
of the
packages, and so it fails out while trying to plot the results. We'll
continue working on it and let you know of any developments.

Subject: missing METplus config file on Hera
From: Guang Lou - NOAA Affiliate
Time: Wed May 19 11:51:07 2021
Hi John,
Thank you for the update.
I tried again following your instructions and it worked to the point
that
it tries to plot out the tracks. But because of the python library
issues
you mentioned, it stopped working at that point.
The log file is on Hera:
/scratch2/NCEPDEV/fv3-
cam/noscrub/Guang.Ping.Lou/metplus_map/met_out/logs/metplus.log.20210519173229
Thanks again,
Guang Ping

Subject: missing METplus config file on Hera
From: John Opatz
Time: Thu May 27 16:47:33 2021
Hello Guang Ping,
After several days of work, we've come up with a solution to this
issue.
Take a look at the github issue
<https://github.com/dtcenter/METplus/issues/933> for more details.
Essentially, the issue was with Cartopy trying to go out and download
shapefiles during the map creation. Because Hera is an internet
limited-access machine, it would time out, causing CyclonePlotter to
fail.
Minna identified a work-around involving a download of the shapefiles
to
Hera, setting up a new environment path for those files, and making
sure
CyclonePlotter checks for that path. Julie helped get the files into
place
and the environment set up correctly, and I've confirmed that your
example
now runs successfully.
If you could, I ask that you test out your use case again. Go ahead
and use
my installation of METplus (under /scratch1/BMC/dtc/jopatz/METplus).
Be
sure to run the following commands before doing so:
module use /scratch1/BMC/dtc/Julie.Prestopnik/METplus/modulefiles_tmp
module load metplus/4.0.0
and let me know if your use case is successful.
Thanks,
-John O.

Subject: missing METplus config file on Hera
From: John Opatz
Time: Mon Jun 21 12:20:21 2021
Hi Guang Ping,
Just checking in to see if you've attempted this patch on your side.
If it
works, we can get this rolled into the Beta release for the end of the

Thanks,
-John O.

Subject: missing METplus config file on Hera
From: Guang Lou - NOAA Affiliate
Time: Thu Jun 24 13:09:15 2021
Hi John,
I was able to generate track map plots by using your new version.
Thanks a
lot!
There is a few finer points that I was wondering:
1. After I use "display 20210623.png", the map shows up in a magnified
version. Is there a way that makes it a normal sized map?
2. When a track goes across 0 degree longitude, there is a line that
goes
across the whole map. You could see there are a few straight line on
the
map:
/scratch2/NCEPDEV/fv3-
cam/noscrub/Guang.Ping.Lou/metplus_map/met_out/cyclone/20210623.png
3. At the 180E and 180W, the digits and letters are overlapping.
4. Are there places in the config file that can specify specific
area(s) to
be plotted - say if I want to plot out North America or Alaska area?
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Subject: missing METplus config file on Hera
From: John Opatz
Time: Tue Jul 13 13:00:53 2021
Hi Guang Ping,
Thanks for letting us know that the patch fixed the issue. Great news!
In response to your findings,
1. I'm not quite sure what you mean by "map shows up in a magnified
version". Is the .ps file focused on a specific region, rather than a
global perspective? That would be the result of the input data; I
explain
more in-depth in #4, but the user can control what the final map
output is
by controlling the gridded region. If you want a larger region to show
up
(e.g. the entire globe), you should be able to utilize the regridding
tool
RegridDataPlane and use a standard "latlon 360 180 -90.0 0.0 1.0 1.0"
to
show the entire globe in 1 degree resolution.
2. Great catch, and thank you for bringing this to our attention. I've
gone
ahead and created a github issue for this here
<https://github.com/dtcenter/METplus/issues/1000>, which you are
welcome to
track. I think we know of a solution, but it will take some time (and
clearing out some higher priority things) on our side before we can
get to
it.
3. This might be fixed by adjusting the CyclonePlotter variable
CYCLONE_PLOTTER_ANNOTATION_FONT_SIZE.
Can you try adjusting that to a smaller value and see if it helps? If
not,
I can create a new Github issue to investigate this further.
4. As mentioned previously, if you want the final output maps to only
show
a certain area, you'll need to use the regrid data options to specify
where
you want to focus on. For example, if you want to only look at CONUS,
you
might use "latlon 60.0 23 23.0 -125.0 1.0 1.0" as the setting for
REGRID_DATA_PLANE_VERIF_GRID
to set up a 1 degree resolution grid over CONUS. The only drawback to
this
is you'll need to include the RegridDataPlane tool to the list of
tools
used since TCPairs and CyclonePlotter do not have built-in regridding
options available. This is a separate issue from if you only want to
*verify* over a certain region, which can be accomplished with a
masking
region.

Subject: missing METplus config file on Hera
From: Guang Lou - NOAA Affiliate
Time: Wed Jul 14 11:22:55 2021
Hi John,
Thanks for your reply and answering my questions.
I added the following line to the
config file "CyclonePlotter_fcstGFS_obsGFS_conus.conf" in attempt to
plot
out the CONUS area's tracks
REGRID_DATA_PLANE_VERIF_GRID= "latlon 60.0 23 23.0 -125.0 1.0 1.0".
It seemed not to have any effect on the track map outcome.
I also reduced the font size from 3 to 1,
>From CYCLONE_PLOTTER_ANNOTATION_FONT_SIZE=3
to CYCLONE_PLOTTER_ANNOTATION_FONT_SIZE=1,
It did not have any effect on the map either. Map's font looks the
same and
180E/180W are overlapped as well.
I might not have set the parameters correctly. Here is the directory:
/scratch2/NCEPDEV/fv3-cam/noscrub/Guang.Ping.Lou/metplus_map7
Here is the command line:
/scratch1/BMC/dtc/jopatz/METplus/ush/run_metplus.py -c
CyclonePlotter_fcstGFS_obsGFS_conus.conf -c usecase.conf
Thanks for your help.

Subject: missing METplus config file on Hera
From: John Opatz
Time: Thu Aug 19 14:36:14 2021
Guang Ping,
I was able to take a look at your configuration file last month and
confirmed that while you were calling REGRID_DATA_PLANE_VERIF_GRID
correctly, you were not including RegridDataPlane as one of the tools
being
called.
However, it raised a more important issue: since none of the tools
being
used in this use case have built-in regridding options, and the files
you're creating are not netCDFs, is a call to RegridDataPlane
appropriate?
With our resident CyclonePlotter expert back in the office, I was able
to
discuss this issue with them and John HG. It was confirmed that
because we
are not dealing with netCDF input or a verification grid in the
traditional
sense, we'd need to update CyclonePlotter so that it the resulting
.png
image is focused only on a user's area of interest, in the same way
RegridDataPlane allows other MET tools.
To meet this need, I've created this
<https://github.com/dtcenter/METplus/issues/1091> github issue, which
is
tentatively scheduled for beta3. It's possible it may slide back,
since a
change to the plotted area may require a major overhaul of the
existing
script.
Since we have have this issue in Github, along with the one for lines
crossing the international dateline,
<https://github.com/dtcenter/METplus/issues/1000> I'm going to close
this
ticket.
If any new issues need to be addressed, please feel welcomed to open a
topic on our Github Discussions page.
Thanks,
-John O.
