Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
George,
I got a issue for ceiling height setting in conf file.
in the HREF mean files, the ceiling height is HGT with level "L0"
with desc "cloud ceiling" So my setting is like this
BOTH_VAR6_NAME = HGT
BOTH_VAR6_LEVELS = L0
BOTH_VAR6_THRESH = <305.0
FCST_VAR6_OPTIONS = desc = cloud ceiling
But this got ERROR : text = "ceiling"
If set as FCST_VAR6_OPTIONS = desc = cloud_ceiling
but still not working.
I can use alternative FCST_VAR6_OPTIONS = GRIB_lvl_typ = 215
to solve this issue, but still curious about the desc setting

Hi Binbin,
I would try putting the value to set for desc inside quotes:
FCST_VAR6_OPTIONS = desc = "cloud ceiling"
However, I don't think that you can use desc to reference that value
from
the GRIB2 file. The "desc" option is typically used to add a
description to
distinguish similar output, but it shouldn't affect what is read in.
I think the GRIB_lvl_typ approach is what you need to use, perhaps in
combination with desc if you are reading both HGT values and need to
separate the output.
The list of all of the options to filter GRIB data can be found here
(search for GRIB_lvl_typ):
https://met.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Users_Guide/config_options.html?highlight=GRIB_lvl_typ#settings-
common-to-multiple-tools
I didn't see any options that look like you can use a string to
specify the
description used in a GRIB record.
Thanks,
George
